### 🌞 Additional Tips for Fertilizing Success
* **Flush the growing medium** with plain water every few months to prevent salt buildup from fertilizers, which can harm your orchid.
* Combine fertilization with proper care—adequate light, humidity, and watering—for best results.
* Consider using **organic or slow-release fertilizers** for a gentler, sustained nutrient supply.
* Monitor your orchid’s response—yellowing leaves may indicate too much nitrogen, while weak flowering might mean insufficient phosphorus.
