Nutritional ingredients: Fish protein is rich in nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium and other nutrients necessary for plant growth, which can promote the healthy development of orchid leaves and roots.

Dilution: When using fish protein to fertilize orchids, be sure to dilute it appropriately. This helps prevent over-fertilization, which may harm the orchid.Foliar spray: 1: 2000-3000 , 450-600g /Ha;Irrigation: 1: 1000-3000,6-7.5kg/Ha.

Fertilization frequency: During the growing season, fish protein can be applied every 4-6 weeks. However, during the dormant period (usually winter), you may need to reduce or stop fertilizing.

Type of orchid: Different types of orchids may have different nutritional needs. For example, epiphytic orchids (such as Phalaenopsis) may respond well to fish Protein, while terrestrial orchids may have different requirements.

Organic Matter:Fish protein is organic and can improve soil structure and microbial activity, which is beneficial for orchids.

Monitoring: Always monitor your orchid for signs of nutrient deficiency or excess. Adjust your fertilization method based on your orchid’s response.

In summary, if used properly, fish protein can be a good choice for orchids, providing essential nutrients and supporting healthy growth.
