How to make a non-flowering orchid bloom: place it under the roots!

Why do orchids sometimes refuse to bloom?
Several factors can prevent orchids from blooming:

Nutritional imbalance: Orchids require specific nutrients to stimulate flowering. Excess nitrogen, for example, promotes leaf growth but delays flowering.

Insufficient light: Orchids require bright, indirect light to form flower spikes. A lack of light means no flowers.

Inadequate temperature: Many orchids require a temperature difference between day and night to stimulate flowering.

Watering problems: Over- or under-watering stresses orchids, compromising their flowering cycle.

Poor root health: Healthy roots are essential for nutrient uptake and overall plant vigor.
