General tips to grow orchids Ventilation Orchids need a good air flow in the green house. If you don’t feel comfortable inside air maybe too humid for them too. Watering It’s difficult to determine when to water your plants, this may vary for different species. If the plant is in growing stage, developing new leaves and roots, watering should be frequent. When it’s on a flowering stage watering should be every other day. Lightning Orchids can grow with shadow or direct sunlight. A good way of telling whether or not your orchids need light is by its leaves. If they are thick and stiff, you should improve the lightning. If they are soft and wide they need a shaded place on your green house.
