Phal fertilizing question
I have the most gorgeous Phal. It has bloomed for more than four
months. The flowers are just now starting to fade.
I understand that it will bloom again in about six months?
I have been feeding it at every watering per instructions on orchid
food jar. Something like 1/8 tsn fertilizer to 1 quart water.
Do I continue to fertilize even when it isn't blooming?
Do I cut off the flower spikes when the blooms are gone?
As you can tell, I know next to nothing about orchids except that I
think I'm hooked and will be buying a few more soon.
Thanks
Jane
