With the bottle method the orchid lasts you a lifetime: the tactic of every nurseryman

Continuation of the Bottle Method Procedure

4. Prepare the Lower Part: Repeat the hole-making process on the base of the lower part of the bottle. These holes will facilitate irrigation.
5. Insert Charcoal: Place pieces of recycled charcoal in the bottom of the bottle. Soften and invert the upper part of the bottle to prevent damage to your orchids.
6. Prepare the Orchid: Gently remove the orchid from its pot, leaving the roots somewhat exposed. Mix charcoal pieces with coconut fiber and use this mixture as the base for the plant inside the bottle.
7. Create a Nutrient-Rich Environment: Fill the top of the bottle with pieces of charcoal rich in potassium, magnesium, and other nutrients. The charcoal will retain moisture and act as a natural fertilizer.
8. Assemble the Setup: Place the plant on this charcoal base, fill the top of the bottle with more charcoal, and insert a support stick for the plant. Use hooks to hang the bottle pot.
9. Watering: Water the plant carefully without overdoing it, ensuring proper hydration for the orchid.
10. Enjoy the Results: The nutrients present in charcoal will invigorate the growth and flowering of your orchid, ensuring its longevity and optimal condition
