Uso infuso di aglio da 7 anni, l'ho sempre consigliato, perché è una ricetta antichissima di oltre 1000 anni,che fa' benissimo alle piante, compreso le orchidee.. io bagno tutta la pianta perché anche un antiparassitario uno stimolante della fioritura,bravo!!

Nice to hear about all the properties of garlic that plants benefit from. Ive seen many videos where garlic or onion is used but the specifics aren’t included. Much appreciated as the more I understand the background, the easier it is to remember !
An absolute pleasure mate , we really appreciate your feed back . Thank you 💕 I agree 100% the more we understand something the better we can learn to use it . knowledge is power 🫰
I like the way you explained with great patience about garlic water as tonic and kills all the germs on the leaves At the end you suggested not to use too much garlic water which will harm the leaves
It is like all good things too much is a bad thing . So better to be safe than sorry . Phytotoxicity can be problematic with a lot of different products but does not stop us using them . In reasonable amounts it is completely harmless and very effective , it would really take a lot of overdosing to cause real problems but I have to put disclaimers in . Thank you for your your input . 👍
Thank you for letting us know , we really appreciate your dedication to our channel . 🙏 It does appear that UA-cam does do that fairly regularly , guess they like to keep us on our toes 🤣 Hope you had an incredible evening

Muchas gracias por su apoyo. Si sus orquídeas florecen todos los años en lo alto del árbol, entonces no creo que necesiten ninguna protección. Es posible que quieran luz adicional para producir los capullos de flores. Si le preocupa, intente dividir un pequeño trozo de uno de ellos y observe qué tan bien crecen en la parte inferior del árbol. Esto te dirá si les gusta o no. ❤️

I wish you'll do updates on the garlic and ginger videos so we can see the dying orchids rejuvenated. I'd like to know How often you water the orchid with garlic water when you're treating it?
for treating a struggling orchid I use it once a week for a month then taper off to once every 2 weeks and as it starts to recover once a month till it is looking better . but remember to flush occasionally
Thank you for the tip. I'm an orchids lover. I'm always looking for a better way to care for them. I have rescued a few orchids with health issues. One of the issues is scales and fungus.
Thank you sharing. Im going to start using it. Can you let me know how often to i have to spray on the orchids. Also can i use on other leafy plants. Thank you.
depending on the orchid media you are growing in you will need to replace it every second year or so and depending on which type of orchid it is . Phalaenopsis can often grow in the same size container for their entire lives (also depending if you bought it mature or not . )
Thank you so much Please could you tell how often do I water the the orchid after I have given them the garlic water Again I thank you so much My kindest Regards Barbra. U K
it depends on the state of your orchid , to start I use it once a week for a month then twice a month for a while and then once a month till it is fully revived 👍💕
Given that the phaelanopsis that I try to rescue from relatives look as if they have a combination of fungus, algae, pests and poor roots, would it not make sense to combine a steeped solution of garlic (against pests and bacteria), ginger (to stimulate root growth) and cinnamon to discourage fungal spores? Presumably there is no negative interaction between the active ingredients?
Studies show No interactions were found between garlic and Ginger Root. However, this does not necessarily mean no interactions exist. Personally I prefer to use them separately but if you do decide to try it this way please keep us updated as to your results . It will be very interesting to see the outcome . 💯
you can spray it on the buds , but if you spray anything on the flowers you will often damage the flowers or get little black spots on your flowers . best to try and treat it properly before the flowers open so you don't have any problems while in full bloom 👌
it depends on the state of your orchid , once a week for suffering orchids for 1 month then reduce down to every 2 weeks then once a month till health again
It sounds like you humidity levels may be very low , check your temperature and humidity levels . This might help you understand your orchid roots a little better ua-cam.com/video/d-HQOnBOy2U/v-deo.htmlsi=sNvbDO7C2xajBqqW . If these dont help you can share more information with me on the cultural environment 👍
Thanks for sharing all your tips, really appreciate as a new plant mum. please i have a question, if i only water some plants once a month, can i use this garlic water only as the only water for the plants. is it safe for my plants. My plants are zz plants, snake plants and peace lilies ( peace lillies needs watering often though) Also my second question even if i dont have a fungai gnats yet can i still be using this as a preventative always?
for something like this i would only use it every second month as we dont want to keep the concentrations of the garlic too high 👍yes doing it this way should help prevent them
Am so sorry but I have another question. Can I use both the egg shell method and garlic methods in one plants, maybe spacing it out like the eggshell methods one month, garlic water another month. Is it safe or just one method is preferred. Of all the UA-cam videos have watched, yours is genuine and you definitely know what you are talking about, I think that why I have all these questions, am so sorry.
My whole orchids collection are seek with different damage. Maybe different pests. Can I use for all spraying it? There are so many to wipe the leaves 😩 so desperate
yes you can use it on all of them , and yes you can spray . If you don't have time to wipe all the leaves just make sure if they are Phalaenopsis then don't allow the water to sit in the crown or between the leaves for a long time 👍
This is the 4th vid ive watched on using gaelic wTer for orchids and benefits. None of yu mentioned how often ITS to be used though. Once a month? Every two weeks? Yu say use in moderación. So how often?
it is all dependent on the state of your orchid , if it needs the boost then once a week for several weeks till it has recovered somewhat and then reduced to once a month is often enough to give your orchid the boost it needs for healthy happy growth . I hope this helps
I keep Phalaenopsis orchids in tall vase water (filter or drinking water) easy care - just change water every 2-3 weeks . Avoid water touching the leaves.
it is probably better to use fresh garlic as the powdered garlic may have been heat treated at high temperatures to dry out and there may be preservatives added .
oh I certainly would think so . A lot of the micro nutrients and active ingredients in these natural products are often very volatile and other chemical additives will de-activate them . I would suggest you make them at home and use them directly . Rather make smaller quantities that you can use up in a month or so if storing them well . I hope this answers your question . Sorry for the delayed reply
@@thenaturecompany thank you, because I have searched dozens of times and found nothing scientifically backed up. I don't question it with respect to terrestrial plants but to epiphytic ones having in mind the limited mycorrhizae.
if your plants are healthy and you are just using to boost and keep pests at bay then use it once a month , if your orchids are unwell you can use it move often to stabilize their condition 👍
you can but you may still have fibers in your blend and if you are spraying even if you blended some of the thicker parts will probably clog up the small sprayer nozzles
@@thenaturecompany , feel free to share this with your viewers if you like. I'm thinking about using an ice cube tray and freezing the concentrate. You'd have to measure, but 1 cube + a cup of water or so would be so handy for my tiny indoor garden. 💖🌞🌵😷

Can i spray it to the buds and flowers?

Can I used for my dendrodium, mokara en vanda
Yes , it even works well with all your other houseplants too
I know that rain water is equally advisable and used boiled water over couple of hrs is not harmful

if your orchid is needing TLC then you can use it more often if it is healthy and you just boosting then just use it once a month
