1、 How long can orchid bud bloom

Different varieties of orchids take different time from bud to flowering. But it usually takes several months for the bud to fully open. Some varieties with slow flowering, such as Chunlan, take 5-6 months to bloom after the bud grows. In addition, there are a few varieties of orchids that take a short time from bud to flowering. For example, it usually takes only 15-30 days for Jianlan to grow buds and bloom

2、 What if orchids don't bloom after growing buds

1. Continue to wait: because most orchids take a long time from bud to flowering, there is no need to worry too much. If the flower bud has just grown for 1-2 months and grows well, don't worry. Continue to maintain for a few months. When the time comes, it will bloom naturally

2. Vernalization: if the cultivated orchid is a variety that needs vernalization, such as Chunlan, Hanlan, Cymbidium, etc., it should be vernalized in an environment of about 10 ℃ before it blooms. The time of vernalization depends on the environment for vernalization and the orchid varieties raised, but it usually takes about one month. If it is not vernalized and kept in a warm place, it may not be able to bloom

3. Water control and maintenance: if it is watered with too much water after it grows buds, it will also fail to bloom. At this time, the water should be controlled in time and transferred to a ventilated and semi cloudy environment until it recovers
