\nOrchid growth slows down in winter, meaning they need less water. Only water when the roots turn silvery and make sure no water remains at the bottom of the pot. This prevents root rot. <\/li>\n
\nDays are shorter in winter, so make sure your orchid gets enough daylight. Place it in a spot close to the window, but avoid direct sunlight. A south-facing window with a light curtain filter is ideal. <\/li>\n
\nOrchids love a constant temperature between 16 and 22 degrees. Don’t place them too close to a heater, as the dry air can dry out their leaves. A little humidity works wonders. <\/li>\n
\nOrchids are sensitive to cold and drafts. Make sure they aren’t placed near open windows or doors where cold air comes in. <\/li>\n
\nYour orchid doesn’t need any food during the winter months. Save the extra feeding for spring, when the plant starts growing more actively again! <\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
