Consejos de cultivo
Phalaenopsis require a 2-4 week temperature drop (15-18C night temps) to trigger flower spike initiation; consistent warm temperatures prevent blooming.
Never let water sit in the crown of the plant — crown rot from trapped water is the most common cause of Phalaenopsis loss in production.
Tissue culture (mericloning) is the only economical propagation method for commercial-scale Phalaenopsis production, yielding genetically identical plants.
