Rinse the onion peels to remove any dirt or pesticides.

Boil 1 liter of water, remove from heat, and add the peels.

Let steep for 12–24 hours until the water turns amber or light brown.

Strain the liquid and discard the peels.

Use only natural, chemical-free onion peels.

Do not use on healthy orchids unnecessarily.

Do not refrigerate the solution—always prepare fresh.

Avoid soaking the crown to prevent rot.
