- Great aeration and ventilation: the airy structure of the substrate provided by the very good quality mediteranean pine bark, prevents the damaging of the roots and boosts the evaporation of excessive moisture and ensures no mold growth conditions and bactericidal pathologies.

This provides the necessary vitamins, nutrients, enzymes and minerals for a sustainable growth and a long-term flowering, in a natural fertilization process.

How to use:

Choose a special pot for orchids, taking into account the size of the plant to be transplanted. Clean the orchids of all dead elements (damaged roots or leaves). The plant’s roots will be washed out of all the old substrate with lukewarm water. A layer of the product will be placed in the new pot to maintain the previous planting height. Place the plant and cover it with substrate, pressing lightly and evenly around it.
During the first 7 days, the plant will not get wet, allowing the substrate to settle naturally in the pots and the roots to adapt to the new environment. After 7 days, watering resumes normally. No fertilization is required for a period of up to 6 months.
