    Dendrobium nobile orchids require a balanced fertilizer applied every 1-2 weeks at half the recommended dosage to prevent root burn. Fertilizer should be flushed out every 4 weeks with plain water. The orchid grows attached to other plants in nature, so the growing media must have good aeration and drainage, such as sphagnum moss, wood chips, coconut coir or lava rocks. Proper irrigation is important - check the media and water when dry, in the morning so leaves dry before night.
