Who this orchid care journal is for

This journal is for orchid growers, from people nursing a grocery store orchid back into bloom to collectors with many species. Orchids need specific light, watering and repotting, and they rebloom on their own schedule, so careful records help you understand each plant and encourage more flowers. It also helps people who received orchids as gifts and want to keep them alive and blooming year after year. Different types, such as moth orchids and dendrobiums, need different care, and notes for each plant prevent mistakes.

How to use your orchid care journal

Fill in a profile for each orchid. Log watering, feeding and care. Record bloom dates and spikes. Track repotting with media used. Note problems, and keep a wish list. Water by checking the roots and media rather than by the calendar, and record what you see. Note when spikes appear and when flowers open, repot after blooming and record any pests or root problems with the treatment you used.
