Can i use orchard food on mini orchids

Yes you can. I use half strength per gallon. I use that to water my orchids weekly, however, 1 week I use regular water. I make that the 4th week of the month because that's the easiest for me to remember.

I don't see why not.. however an arborist would be a better source of info.. The only thing I would worry about is Leyland Cypress grow very fast and adding fertilizer to them may cause too fast a growth and a potential for weakness.as far as the systemic pesticide , maybe a topical or pure systemic pesticide would be better. if you're dealing with spider mites, the damage is done before you notice them.. but a good hosing with a high power nozzle yearly helps.. .

I would also buy http://www.amazon.com/FX14045-Granular-Fertilizer-Tri-Pack-Canisters/dp/B000HY2ODU/ref=cm_cr_pr_pb_t and use only the open sesame, beastie bloom, and cha-ching by themselves from flowering til harvest. I had good results with these fertilisers.

Partially; some insects and eggs and nematodes are pretty small. You might consider heating/drying the soil to sterilize it.

definitely, orchids are very sensitive when as far as watering and leaving any kind of fertilizer sitting on roots not dissolved. I have had root root doingthat. Dissolve the fertilizer first, then water the plant using distilled water. I never use tap water, and don't overwater. Good Luck, jfkflyguy-Dan

I am not certain if it works on orchids, I used it on some rosemary cuttings and it worked great.

I spray my orchids once a week or so. I'm not a gardener, but this seems to help keep scale away since they are in a screened-in room. If my plants are not prone to bugs or fungus, I leave them alone.

You can cut them. The lighter green ones that are circular (I can't remember the species) are small already. They would be perfect little hills in a mini terrarium.

I think so. I once talked to a customer who grew Triops using just plain spring water, and it worked fine. What you might want to do is try both: one in one container and one in the other, and see how it works out. Sometimes, you get some 'fairy shrimp' or something that's mixed in with the Triops, but they are soon eaten by said Triops. If both water solutions work, it could be that you might see more eggs hatch with the distilled water than the spring water, since it more accurately mimics the rainwater conditions Triops are adapted to.

I routinely chop garlic, ginger and shallots in the Mini Mate. It does an excellent job very quickly. I usually use the larger mini prep for parsley and basil.

Eggplant may be a little too large for this. I have peeled large apples, potatoes, and yams with no problem.

Because ism only feeding one bearded dragon the crickets lasted over a month! I have them fluckers orange feed and yellow diet (sold separately) ever couple of day at the bottom of the tank. Not the whole bottle just a small pile of each. They say you can slice up a potato and use that for food/water but my son frequently forgot.

the instructions do not list vegetables so I would not use it on them. I purchased it for use on orchids. There are safer fungicides like copper (which is safe on tons of veg) and even baking soda diluted in water.

I don't see how it would hurt them.I'm currently raising caterpillars and the nectar for the ladybugs is organic material similar to flower nectar which is what the caterpillars would eat in the wild also, so it should be fine.

Orchids need very dilute fertilizer, this would probably be too much fertilizer for an orchid.

Ask Google........the short answer is........you need to ask the same question to the maker of this produce Advanced Nutrients.......they have the answers......or you can go to college and get a 4-years degree in Organic Gardening........A quick answer is to use Voodoo Juice when you transplant the Clones into dirt........however I do not think it will hurt the Clones........it will keep out the bad fungus......

Box states it is good for all indoor plants. I use 1/4 tsp. per gallon of water when I water once a week. My orchids do well with this plant food, so I'm sure the peace lily will be fine.
