How to Care for Dendrobium Nestor Semi Alba

1. Light:

   • Prefers bright, indirect sunlight. Avoid direct midday sun to prevent leaf burn.
   • East-facing windows or filtered light works best.

2. Watering:

   • Water thoroughly when the potting media is dry to the touch, typically every 4-7 days depending on the season.
   • Avoid overwatering; ensure water drains freely to prevent root rot.

3. Temperature and Humidity:

   • Thrives in temperatures between 18°C to 30°C (65°F to 85°F).
   • Maintain humidity levels of 50-70%. Use a humidity tray or mist the plant in dry conditions.

4. Feeding:

   • Use a balanced orchid fertilizer (20-20-20) diluted to half strength every 2 weeks during the growing season (spring and summer).
   • Reduce feeding in fall and winter.

5. Pruning:

   • Remove spent flower spikes and yellowing leaves to encourage healthy growth.

Soil Media to Use

• Use a well-draining, aerated orchid mix containing:
  • Bark chips (fir or pine)
  • Charcoal
  • Perlite or sphagnum moss (to retain slight moisture)
• The medium should allow roots to breathe and prevent water retention.
