Further dilute the prepared fertilizer with additional water to create a 25% strength fertilizer. To do this, mix one part of prepared orchid fertilizer with three parts of water. In addition, fertilize less frequently during the fall and winter, when orchid growth slows down. During this time, your orchid can get by with once a month fertilization or less. Some orchid species don’t need to be fertilized at all when growth slows down.

Yes, you can mist your other plants with leftover orchid fertilizer, but don’t expect it to meet your other plants’ fertilization needs. Remember, orchids prefer weak fertilizer. This means you are probably using a 25% strength orchid fertilizer to feed your orchids. While this is perfect for your orchids, it is too diluted for other plants. During an orchid’s active growth phase, feed with a balanced 20-20-20 NPK orchid fertilizer. The growth phase is the period that occurs shortly after the orchid is done flowering and the last bloom has fallen off.
