Fungus Spots!
Are you fungiciding your Orchids?
Fungal spores land on water droplets on the leaves of your Orchid causing fungus spots.
We can help avoiding this by ensuring we're watering our Orchids in the mornings which allows the plant to dry out throughout the day and concentrating on watering the root system only of the plant.
We fungicide Fame Orchids Nursery with a product called Mancozeb. We spray this as a precautionary once a month on all of our orchids in the nursery. It comes as a powder that we mix in water, to stop it leaving water droplet marks we add a wetting agent (we use Eco-oil) to get a nice even spread across the plant and leaves. This leaves an antifungal protective film on your plants that protects in these unpredictable weather times.
Happy Growing ๐ฟ
