One of the most beautiful plants that exist, that anyone has at home to beautify the home environment and give it the right color, is the orchid.
Orchids are elegant, colorful, wonderful, refined, the flowers are spectacular, they change the look of the house with little effort in a very short time.
Someone thinks that taking care of orchids indoors can be demanding and difficult, in reality it is enough to follow some tips, some trivial tricks to be pleasantly surprised.
Orchids at home, you don’t need to have a green thumb, just do this for great satisfaction.
To have fantastic orchids at home and revive even the darkest corner of the apartment, all you have to do is buy the right species and then take care of it without excesses. In this regard, it should be remembered that the word excesses indicates the cause of death of any plant.

Anyone who doesn’t have a green finger shouldn’t stop having plants at home. Not only can you have as many as you want, but you can also try to replicate them to have super flowery balconies and windowsills with little effort.
Among the simplest species of orchids to grow at home is the Phalenopsis which, if placed in the right way and in the right position at home, can give satisfaction, then there is the Cambria that does not require who knows what care.
They are two plants that, with the right amount of light and water, give life to spectacular blooms. Orchids need mild and warm temperatures, light but not direct air, humid but not too humid. For example, 70% humidity is best.
An orchid looks great near the window, as long as the curtains are drawn, to prevent sunlight from reaching its leaves directly and killing them. To know if the lighting is adequate, that is, neither too much nor too little, it is enough to observe the color of the leaves, which should be an intense green, neither lighter nor darker.
The temperature should go from 18 to 28 degrees, not a little lower, not a little higher. Then it is important that the air circulates well, also in this case without excesses. The plant should be sheltered from the wind and should not have standing water.
Tips for the Plant to Grow Well, A Natural Fertilizer That Works
Speaking of which, orchids should be watered abundantly in spring and summer, giving the soil the opportunity to dry out completely precisely to prevent water from stagnating and killing the plant without anyone noticing.

It may also be imperative to use a fertilizer once every 15 days, perhaps diluted in water. Strange as it may seem, among the many fertilizers on sale in the supermarket, in stores that deal with plant care, there is one natural product in particular capable of giving many more benefits at almost no cost.
We are talking about banana peel, you simply need three, bought for food purposes, which however can be useful in a thousand other ways, this is an example. This is how we say no to waste, which is no small thing in an age like ours in which consumerism and waste are the masters.
How to make natural fertilizer at home and how to use it
Three banana peels are able to give great satisfaction, in this case they can beautify the orchid, they are able to prolong its flowering without signs of suffering, even out of season.
The first thing to do is to wash the banana peels thoroughly, then place them in a container with 2 liters of water and let them macerate for at least two days. Once the necessary time has elapsed, the solution is filtered and used to wet the plant or simply to clean the leaves in summer.

It’s advisable to use it sparingly because it’s a very concentrated solution that, again, if used excessively, can damage the orchid rather than make it last a long time or make it play quickly.
Once this is done, the plants will look much more beautiful right away. The only thing to remember is that this procedure should be done every 7 days.
Finally, the liquid that is not used must be left sheltered, closed, never exposed to sunlight, not open because not only does it evaporate but because mosquitoes are sensationally attracted to it, which becomes dangerous.
