Temperature:

 This kind of orchid refers to the mixed temperature regime: Summer temperature at 30 ° C; Winter temperature at 10 -14 ° C. To successfully grow at home, it is necessary that the night temperature is always 4 ° C lower than the daytime temperature.

Humidity:

 Humidity for this species can vary from 60 to 80%. The higher temperature, the higher must be the humidity of the air, and the higher the humidity of the air, the more often and longer it is necessary to ventilate the room where the orchids are kept, otherwise there is a high probability of decay and appearance on the leaves of various kinds of fungi.

Substrate, growing media and repotting:

 Coelogyne lactea is usually grow in suspended trellis pots. As a substrate, the mixture of softwood bark with foam is the best, as it is very well breathable, which protects the roots from decay.

 This kind of orchids react very negatively to transplantation. Nevertheless, in order to prevent salinization and compaction of the substrate periodically, it is simply necessary. The best time for this is considered the period immediately after flowering, when a new growth of roots and bulbs begins.

Watering:

 During a period of new growth, the cultivated plant needs frequent and abundant watering. Excess water should flow freely out of the pot, as the stagnation of water both inside and in the pot tray can very quickly lead to decay of the roots and the lower part of the plant. Especially this applies to suspended pots, since the pallet is attached to the bottom of the pot. It must be regularly removed, excess water should be poured out, and the substrate should be dried. The substrate between waterings should dry up. In the hot summer months, regular spraying of the outer part of the plant is recommended. This has a beneficial effect on the growth and development of plants and will help the orchid to better tolerate heat.

Fertilizer:

 During the period of new growth, this type of orchid is fertilized every two weeks in the usual concentration of fertilizer indicated on the package. To prevent salinization of the substrate every six months, it needs a good washing. To do this, the orchid should be placed under a stream of warm water and several times well shed.

Rest period:

 To stimulate flowering, Coelogyne lactea needs a clearly defined period of rest. It begins immediately after the maturation of new bulbs, i.e. when new young shoots reach the size of the old, and is that the orchids contain much drier and colder than usual, and do not fertilize. The temperature during this period should be 10-14 ° C. From watering, you should either refuse completely, or replace it with a light spray of the substrate. Perform this procedure should not be more than once in 4-5 weeks. After the appearance of peduncles, the rest period ends: the watering of the orchid resumes in the usual volume, and the overall temperature of the contents rises.
