After removing the rotted part, it is important to dry the rotting solution even with absorbent paper and it is very important to remove the waste and isolate it as much as possible. We then take a piece of activated carbon , made from natural, dry firewood. The coal must then be mixed and turned into powder.
Then we need to spray it on the “wound” of the plant so that it can heal faster and prevent further diseases from spreading. In addition, not everyone may know that activated carbon has a very important sterilization function. Always sprinkle the base of the plant with charcoal dust and isolate the vase with the orchid from everything else. Then don’t water for a week.
We can immediately see how the plant recovers on its own. This brings us to some very useful advice. Let’s take a teaspoon of activated charcoal powder and mix it with 1 liter of water. We need this to moisten the base of the plant. By doing this at least once a week, we help prevent further illnesses from developing. Another tip is to immerse the pot with the plant in water and charcoal for at least 30 minutes.
