## 🧴 How to Mist Your Orchid Properly
1. **Use a fine mist spray bottle** – Avoid heavy droplets that can settle in the crown (where the leaves meet), which may cause rot.
2. **Mist only in the morning** – This gives the plant time to dry during the day. Never mist at night.
3. **Mist the air around the orchid** – Focus on the air, roots, and underside of leaves rather than soaking the plant directly.
4. **Monitor humidity** – Consider a humidity tray or humidifier if you live in a dry climate.

## 🌱 Bonus Morning Tips for Continuous Orchid Blooms
Aside from misting, here are a few extra daily habits to support your orchid’s health:
### ✅ Bright, Indirect Light
Place your orchid near a window with filtered sunlight. Too much direct sun can scorch leaves, while too little light prevents blooming.
### ✅ Check the Roots
Healthy orchid roots should be green and firm. If they’re silver or dry, it may be time for a deeper watering (about once a week).
### ✅ Talk to Your Orchid!
Okay, not scientifically necessary—but many gardeners swear by the calm, mindful energy shared during plant care. Plus, it helps you stay attentive to subtle changes in the plant’s health.

## 🚫 What Not to Do
* Don’t mist too heavily or late in the day.
* Don’t let water collect at the base of the leaves (crown rot risk!).
* Don’t use cold tap water; room-temperature or distilled water is best.
