DETALLES

Instrucciones de cuidado
Paphiopedilum acmodontum requires bright, indirect light and high humidity to thrive. It prefers moderate temperatures and should be kept in a consistently moist environment. Avoid direct sunlight as it can scorch the leaves. Regular misting can help maintain the necessary humidity levels.
Suelo
This orchid prefers a well-draining loam soil mix that retains moisture but does not become waterlogged. A mix of bark, perlite, and peat moss can provide the ideal growing medium. Ensure the pot has good drainage to prevent root rot.
Fertilizante
Use a balanced fertilizer with a nutrient composition of 20-20-20. Fertilize every two weeks during the growing season and reduce frequency during the dormant period. Dilute the fertilizer to half strength to avoid over-fertilization.
Trasplante
Repot Paphiopedilum acmodontum every 1-2 years or when the plant outgrows its pot. Choose a slightly larger pot and refresh the soil mix. Handle the roots gently to avoid damage. Repotting is best done in the spring.
Propagación
Propagation is typically done through division. Divide the plant during repotting, ensuring each division has at least three healthy growths. Plant the divisions in separate pots with fresh soil mix and provide the same care as the parent plant.
Poda
Pruning is not generally required for this orchid. Remove any dead or yellowing leaves to maintain plant health and appearance. Cut back spent flower spikes to encourage new growth.
Toxicidad
Paphiopedilum acmodontum 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 avoid any potential issues.
Adicional
Ensure good air circulation around the plant to prevent fungal infections. Regularly check for pests such as aphids and spider mites, and treat promptly if found. This orchid can be grown both indoors and outdoors, provided the environmental conditions are met.
