Anticipation Environmental Limitations

Environmental conditions terrace house or yard is different, depending on the location and condition of the porch and yard. Often the constraints in the face are:

1. Lack of light, both the intensity and duration of irradiation.

2. Humidity is very low or very dry conditions

3. Rays that are too hot and the temperature of the hot / high

4. Gusts of wind is too loud / large or otherwise not even a breeze.

5. It never rained rain or vice versa continues.

The bottom line is that we must overcome such a bad shape, into a condition suitable to the needs of Growing Orchids.

Shortage of light can be overcome by providing a mirror so that light can be reflected toward Orchid plants, either for the purpose of adding the intensity of sunlight. For example if a narrow home page so that incoming rays starting at 10 am and the afternoon was gone at 2 pm, to increase the radiation then we can use mirrors to get light orchids longer. Or if we want to add more length of exposure so we can provide lighting to light the plant gets a longer time (14-16 hours of irradiation).

To adjust the humidity can use a sprayer and a timer, or a pot containing water (hydroponic pot), or swimming under the orchids etc.. If too often exposed to rain so it's good at reducing by giving shade.

Similarly with the wind, when wind gusts are too tight then it can be an obstacle, and vice versa when there is no wind it can be given a small fan in order to get the wind. The wind is very important to regulate the humidity and air circulation.
