How to Care for Your Cymbidium Belle Glade Remake
Light:
Provide bright, indirect light to your Cymbidium Belle Glade Remake. Avoid direct midday sun, which can scorch the leaves. Morning or late afternoon sunlight best supports vibrant growth and blooming.
Temperature:
Maintain daytime temperatures between 65-75°F (18-24°C). Nighttime temperatures can drop to 50-55°F (10-13°C) to encourage flowering. Protect the plant from sudden cold drafts or heat spikes.
Watering:
Water thoroughly when the top inch of the potting medium feels dry. During active growth, keep the medium evenly moist but not waterlogged. Reduce watering slightly in winter when the plant is less active.
Humidity:
Aim for humidity around 40-60%. Increase humidity by placing a humidity tray beneath the pot or using a humidifier, especially in dry indoor environments.
Fertilizing:
Feed every 2-3 weeks during the growing season (spring through early fall) with a balanced orchid fertilizer diluted to half strength. Cut back feeding during the winter rest period.
Potting Medium:
Use a well-draining orchid mix, typically a blend of fir bark, perlite, and charcoal. Repot every 2-3 years or when roots outgrow the container, preferably in spring after flowering.
Air Circulation:
Good air movement helps prevent fungal diseases. Place your Cymbidium in a space with gentle airflow but away from cold drafts.
Blooming Tips:
Cool nighttime temperatures in fall and early winter encourage spike development. Avoid moving the plant frequently during bud formation to prevent drop.
Following these care guidelines, your Cymbidium Belle Glade Remake will thrive, delivering its spectacular floral display year after year.
