Bona Forte fertilizer for orchids with succinic acid: methods and frequency of use

Article content:

Two years ago my husband gave me a beautiful orchid with large orange flowers. At first, it rather willingly blossomed, but in the last year it has released only new leaves. Recently I heard about a drug that stimulates the blooming of orchids. Tell me how to properly use fertilizer Bona Forte for orchids with succinic acid? How often can it be used?

A graceful beauty orchid is a capricious lady, and requires special attention. For abundant and long flowering, it needs additional feedings, while conventional fertilizers are not very suitable for it. The brand Bona Forte has created a special preparation for fertilizing orchids, which contains succinic acid and magnesium - the decorative and flowering plants required nutrients.

How to use the drug?

Fertilizer has a liquid form and in addition to succinic acid includes a whole complex of trace elements such as nitrogen, magnesium, phosphorus, iron, potassium and others.

Bona Forte works equally well with root dressing and spraying a plant on a leaf. For irrigation under the root should prepare a working solution at the rate of 5 ml of the drug in 1.5 liters of water.

During the watering of orchids it is necessary to ensure that excess water does not stand in the pot. This can lead to decay and death of the plant.

For foliar feedings, a lower concentration solution should be used - the same amount of water preparation will require twice as much.

While spraying a blooming orchid, avoid spillage of the flowers.

The frequency of feeding depends on the time of the year:

  • from November to February, one application per month is enough;
  • from March to October should be fertilized every week.

The prepared solution can be stored in a dark place for no more than 2 weeks. During the next use, shake it well to dissolve the precipitate formed on the surface.

Restrictions on the use of fertilizer

It is possible to conduct dressings only in completely healthy orchids. Fertilization with external signs of plant disease is possible only if the reason for the disease was the lack of nutrients.


As for young, newly planted flowers, they can only be fed 2 weeks after planting. This also applies to transplanted plants.
