Temperature:

 The average temperature of the day in summer is 25-26 ° C, the night 17-18 ° C, giving a daily difference of 7-8 ° C. In spring, the average day temperature is 29-31 ° C, night 11-18 ° C, giving a daily difference of 11-20 ° C. The average temperature of the winter day is 23-26 ° C, the night 8-9 ° C, which significantly increases the daily difference to 14-18 ° C.

Humidity:

 Through summer and autumn, Findlay's Dendrobium needs the average humidity of 80-85%, but in winter it drops to 60-70%. Within 2 months at the beginning of spring the humidity drops to almost 50%.

Substrate, growing media and repotting:

 Dendrobium findlayanum can be grown mounted on tree-fern rootstock or cork with high humidity and watering in summer at least once a day. If they are grown in pots, any loose, fast-drying substrate is recommended. Repotting is best done at the beginning of spring, immediately after flowering, when new roots begin to grow.

Watering:

 In the growing season, watering is very abundant, but the winter is very dry. The plants should be constantly moist when they grow actively, and when in the autumn new increments reach maturity, the amount of water should be gradually reduced.

Fertilizer:

 It is recommended to apply a 1/4-1/2 dose of orchid fertilizer weekly. It is preferable to use high-nitrogen fertilizer from spring to mid-summer, and then use high-phosphoric fertilizer until the end of autumn.

Rest period:

 The amount of water should be reduced from the end of autumn to the beginning of spring. For most of winter, Dendrobium findlayanum should dry out between waterings, but they should not be completely dry for too long. Occasional morning fogging between waterings will help protect the plant from excessive drying. In the period of 1-2 months at the end of winter, however, the amount of water should be reduced to the occasional morning fogging. Fertilization should be reduced or eliminated until new increments appear in the spring.
