Hello there,

I've done some research online and asked an orchid shop and I have gotten contradictory information on when to fertilize my orchids. Some places say to do it only after the plant stops blooming and I've also read to do it all year round.

I purchased the FEED ME! MSU fertilizer and I'm hoping somebody could shed some light on the matter.

I've also read that I should water my orchids by letting them soak up the water in a tub from the bottom up, but then that seems like it would waste fertilizer so would it be ok to mix it in a water bottle and pour it in avoiding getting the leaves wet?

I'm a newbie, so please excuse my lack of knowledge in in this matter. Thank you!
