Lighting is Important For Your Jewel Orchid Lighting

Posted on August 12, 2021

When it comes to dealing with lightning strikes, few plants can withstand them as well as the Jewel Orchid. This stunning plant is perfect for those who are looking for an eco-friendly way to create a dramatic effect in their landscaping. Growing orchids can be a very rewarding experience, but it also poses many risks. If you are growing orchids, be sure to prepare yourself with some good knowledge of what to do in case of a possible lightning strike.

The very first thing that you need to be aware of is that lighting requirements for orchids are different from other plants. In fact, orchids require full sunlight to thrive at all. For this reason, you should place them away from any source of artificial sunlight, so that they can have as much exposure to direct sunlight as possible.

A second thing that you need to be aware of is that when growing orchids indoors, you must be extremely careful not to move the plant while it is growing. Lightning tends to strike the plant just before or shortly after it is moving. So, if you are planning to move your growing orchid in the near future, you might want to consider putting it in a dark, quiet place until the weather becomes steady and you can move it safely. Of course, you should also pay close attention to what is going on around you, particularly during daylight hours, as a thunderstorm could be in the air just before your orchid is due to move.

Rain is another thing that you should be aware of, because if you have a growing orchid in your garden, you need to be extra careful in taking it out of the garden if there is a chance of heavy rainfall. Do not take it down to the basement or garage, as this could cause the roots of your orchids to rot. Also, you should consider using a potting soil mix that has good drainage, so that your orchids do not end up drowning in their own soil. You should also be able to get a clear view of the roots and the positioning of your orchids’ growing points if you have a clear glass of standing water inside your house.

You should also be careful not to over water your orchids. Over watering is one of the biggest causes of damage to orchids. It is best for you to only put about half as much water in the pot as you think your orchid will need. This will ensure that the plant does not drown and dooming its beauty to the lightning rod. In addition to that, over watering can also do damage to your plants other roots as well as causing the plant to become irregular in growth.

Your last point of concern when choosing to grow a jewel orchid in your home is the location of the light source. You should keep in mind that you will have to place it somewhere that it gets plenty of sunlight during the day. The most ideal spot is in an area where the sun will shine directly on the plant during the day. However, you should be careful not to place your jewel orchid in areas that are too near windows because this can cause damage to your orchid through overheating.

Lighting is another major consideration when growing orchids. There are several different types of lighting that you can use to give your orchid a better look and to protect it from damage. Basically, the type of lighting you use depends on what stage your orchid is at. It is important for you to pay special attention to the type of orchid you have because some orchids require different stages of lighting.

The best way to be sure that your orchid grows at the proper pace and in the right direction is by using a professional. You can find these specialists in your area by doing a simple online search. You can also purchase quality grow lights for your orchid so that you can provide it with adequate lighting. By providing your orchid with the proper lighting, you can greatly enhance its beauty and save yourself money in the process.
