If infection sets in
If you have a plant that just doesn’t seem to recover it could be because trouble is hiding beneath the surface. We like to put a cinnamon stick in the sprayer to increase the efficacy of the solution over time. Spray with Physan mixed at 1 Tablespoon with a gallon if infection sets in. If you cut on a plant, lightly sprinkle it with cinnamon because it is an effective orchid flower delivery bactericide or some fungicide and it’s safe to use. Pick up an extra bottle of cinnamon in the spice section of your local grocery store and keep it near the orchids. We spray foliage monthly with Physan as a preventative. The best defense for fungus/bacterial infections is a good offense.
