DETALLES
Instrucciones de cuidado
Coelogyne cristata requires bright, indirect light and moderate temperatures. It thrives in high humidity and should be kept evenly moist. During its dormancy period, reduce watering but do not let the plant dry out completely. Ensure good air circulation to prevent fungal infections.Suelo
This orchid prefers a well-draining loam soil mix. A mix of bark, perlite, and sphagnum moss works well. The soil should retain some moisture but not become waterlogged. Good drainage is essential to prevent root rot.Fertilizante
Use a balanced orchid fertilizer with a nutrient composition of 20-20-20. Fertilize every two weeks during the growing season and reduce feeding during the dormancy period. Dilute the fertilizer to half the recommended strength to avoid over-fertilization.Trasplante
Repot Coelogyne cristata every two to three years or when the potting medium breaks down. Repot in the spring after the blooming period. Use a fresh orchid mix and ensure the new pot has good drainage. Handle the roots gently to avoid damage.Propagación
Propagate by division during repotting. Carefully separate the pseudobulbs, ensuring each division has at least three healthy bulbs. Plant the divisions in fresh orchid mix and water sparingly until new growth appears.Poda
Prune after the flowering period. Remove spent flower spikes and any dead or yellowing leaves. This helps the plant conserve energy and encourages new growth. Use sterilized pruning shears to prevent the spread of disease.Toxicidad
Coelogyne cristata is not known to be toxic to pets or humans. However, it is always best to keep plants out of reach of pets and children to prevent any accidental ingestion.Adicional
Ensure good air circulation around the plant to prevent fungal infections. Mist the plant regularly to maintain high humidity, especially in dry indoor environments. Avoid placing the plant in direct sunlight as it can scorch the leaves.REVOLUCIONE EL CUIDADO DE SUS PLANTAS
