That is a LONG bloom cycle!!

It’s freaking crazy! It gets to the point that I get anxious for it to stop so I can fertilize or repot.

The struggle is real.

Do you not fertilize when she is actively blooming?

#### MeasomerPi replied on 2023-07-19

I don’t don’t fertilize while in bloom. It make sense because they are not in active growth during that time. I suppose if a new leaf or roots beginning to form one could start the fertilizer regimen again.

#### Danika replied on 2023-07-19

Right. The thing I heard you are supposed to do with flowers in general (not just orchids), is you want to fertilize right as you see blooms starting to develop, to help give it a boost to do so. Then stop fertilizing until blooms are spent, then fertilize again right at end of blooms.
