rePotme Orchid Food - Feed ME! MSU Orchid Fertilizer for RO/Rain/Tap Water (8 oz)

This stuff is fantastic for orchids. I’ve been using it for 5 years. Each jar lasts about 2 years. My orchid plant is healthy and has grown to about 5 times the size in 5 years. Here’s how I use it. I put the suggested amount of fertilizer and water into a closed pot (with no drainage holes), then I drop my orchid pot into the closed pot for 15 minutes (once a week). I always set a timer because it’s easy to forget about it and orchids are very sensitive to root rot if you leave it in the water too long. This is very important!!!!!!!!! Since using it, I’ve gotten a couple of enormous stems of big healthy flowers year, which last about 4-6 weeks. The two stems come up about 2 months apart. Even when cut and put into a vase these flowers will last about 4 weeks. Be careful not to mistake the stems from aerial roots. I stake them to hold them up.

Ordered once directly and my plants seem to be doing well. Ordered from Amazon for more for the prime free shipping

This is the second jar of food that I’ve bought. I actually have six orchids that I put in a sink full of tepid water with a teaspoon of orchid food once a week for 15 minutes. They usually re-bloom twice a year! So easy to use and my orchids are so healthy! I also purchased rePot me orchid medium for planting them. Great products.

I originally purchased this on recommendation from a YouTube orchid grower. After about a year and a half of use, I suddenly have multiple flower spikes on several of my orchids! One plant even has two splits and one coming off of an old spike too. )That's like 5 spikes on one plant! This makes an amazing difference. Like many other reviews here, my granules also changed color. I had them in my pantry, which I thought was pretty dry, but on my second use I found they had turned whitish and clumped. (Surprisingly, the diluted mixture still turns slightly blue.) It did not have the mold odor that others mentioned, so I have continued to use it with no problems. - I have since found that placing it in the fridge keeps it dry, but I also minimize the time it is out of the fridge so it doesn't pick up condensation. It takes very little... Although distilled is best, I use one teaspoon per gallon of Brita/tap water (this is one of few fertilizers made for RO/rain AND tap water), for every watering, and double it once or twice during the growing season. Update: This little jar has lasted me about 2 years (about one dozen orchids) and I am back to buy the larger jar. In addition to the other praises, I thank this fertilizer for giving me a couple keikis from very healthy plants too. Love it!

This fertilizer is fine for the most part. However, I did follow the instructions, and quite a few roots have been burned on different plants. It may be best to use a little less than instructed.

I bought this because I buy the dead and dying orchids from Lowe's. It has revived all of them and they are profusely blooming. It has easy to follow instructions for year round orchid care. Plus it wasn't formulated buy a large conglomerate. I re-use my 1 gallon water container to mix up the food. Works great and has no smell at all

My wife has 4 orchids that appear to like this plant food. I can’t tell you how they would do without it but they do well with it.

I purchased the granular form of this fertilizer. I have never had any issues with it and this past summer it was kept in a room with no air conditioning and humid conditions. Just do not get it wet. I only have four orchids but I also have many other types of plants. I use this fertilizer on all of them and they all respond well to it. You can use one half a teaspoon in half a gallon if you don’t need a whole gallon. It is not rocket science. I have had this container of fertilizer for over a year. The color can change after a few months but it works just as well. One container can last a long time. Next I am going to purchase the liquid form. My orchids began growing roots and leaves as soon as I began using this product. I also use the Repotme orchid medium. She. I was given my first orchid I had no idea how to treat it. I saw the Repotme products and decided to use products that had been researched and worked well. When my first orchid bloomed again I decided to get more. I have these orchids under grow lights. They go through a cycle of blooming, then growing a new leaf and some roots. Then they repeat the cycle. Give them what they need and they will grow and bloom for you. I am going to add the fish emulsion to my regime next.
