Caring for Your C. Koolau Seagulls 'Volcano Queen' AM/AOS
Light: C. Koolau Seagulls 'Volcano Queen' thrives in bright, indirect light. Place your orchid near a window with filtered sunlight. Too much direct sunlight can scorch the leaves, while too little can inhibit blooming.
Temperature: This Cattleya variety prefers daytime temperatures between 75°F and 85°F and nighttime temperatures around 60°F to 65°F. Consistent temperatures will encourage robust growth and flower development.
Watering: Water your Orchid when the top inch of the potting media feels dry. Generally, this may be about once a week. Use room temperature water and ensure good drainage to prevent root rot. During the active growing season (spring and summer), increase the frequency, while reducing it slightly during fall and winter.
Humidity: Maintain humidity levels of 50% to 70% for optimal growth. You can increase humidity by placing a humidifier nearby or using a pebble tray filled with water.
Fertilizing: Feed your C. Koolau Seagulls 'Volcano Queen' with a balanced orchid fertilizer (20-20-20) diluted to half strength every two weeks during the growing season. Reduce feeding to once a month in fall and winter.
Repotting: Repot every 1-2 years in a coarse orchid mix that allows for adequate drainage and airflow. Spring is the ideal time to repot, after flowering but before new growth begins.
Pest Control: Keep an eye out for common pests such as mealybugs, scale, and aphids. If detected, treat your orchid with appropriate insecticidal soap or neem oil.
Blooming: Cattleya orchids, including the 'Volcano Queen,' typically bloom in late winter to early spring. Ensure optimal conditions leading up to blooming, especially concerning light and temperature.
By following these care guidelines, your C. Koolau Seagulls 'Volcano Queen' AM/AOS should flourish and reward you with beautiful blooms.
