Preparing the orchid for treatment: If the orchid is potted, gently remove the top layer of soil around the roots without damaging them.

Place the nutrient pill under the roots: Place one or two fertilizer pills near the root zone, ideally where moisture is retained but not waterlogged.

Water the orchid normally: After placing the pills, water the plant to help gradually dissolve the nutrients in the root zone.

Repeat monthly: To promote continued flowering, apply nutrient tablets once a month during the active growing season.
