Caring for your Rlc. Volcano Feeling ‘Volcano Queen’
Rlc. Volcano Feeling ‘Volcano Queen’ is a show-stopping hybrid that rewards attentive care with long-lasting, dramatic blooms. To keep this plant vigorous and flowering:
Light: Provide bright, filtered light—about 2,000–3,000 foot-candles. Morning sun or strong east/west exposure is ideal; avoid harsh midday sun that can scorch leaves.
Temperature & Humidity: Maintain daytime temperatures of 70–85°F and nights around 58–65°F. Aim for 50–70% humidity with good air circulation to prevent fungal issues.
Watering: Water thoroughly when the potting mix begins to dry but before the pseudobulbs wrinkle—typically once a week in active growth, less in cooler months. Use tepid, low-mineral water; allow excess to drain fully.
Potting Medium & Repotting: Use a chunky, fast-draining mix (bark, perlite, charcoal). Repot every 2–3 years or when medium decomposes, preferably just after flowering when new growth begins.
Fertilizer: Feed with a balanced orchid fertilizer (20-20-20 or similar) at quarter to half strength every 1–2 weeks during growth; reduce to monthly during rest. Flush the pot occasionally to prevent salt build-up.
Bloom Care: Support heavy inflorescences and avoid moving the plant while buds form to reduce shock. Remove spent flower spikes to encourage future blooms.
Pest & Disease: Inspect regularly for scale, mealybugs, and spider mites. Treat infestations promptly and maintain air movement to minimize fungal problems.
With steady light, consistent moisture, and attentive feeding, Rlc. Volcano Feeling ‘Volcano Queen’ will reward you with bold, long-lasting flowers—an elegant centerpiece for any collection.
