How To Grow Orchids - Method 2 of 2: Nurturing Your Orchids 1

1.        Create the right temperature for your orchid. Most orchids originate from a tropical climate, meaning good air, plenty of light, and 12-hour days (365 days a year). The temperature (depending on the species of orchid) should range between 65 to 75 degrees Fahrenheit (18.3 to 23.8 degrees Celsius).

• Make sure that there's about a 20 degree F (6.66 degree C) difference between day and night temperatures. This must be implemented as soon as you begin.
