    Piping Rock new owner

    Thank you all! Yes, right now is very busy, but in a great way! As I did years ago, I plan to spend time here and chat as time allows. Hope to get reacquainted with some of the regulars. Once again thanks. I think Glen feels things are in good hands, which they are... but with many transfers...

    Piping Rock new owner

    Hi everyone. It seems there are some questions regarding who the new owner of Piping Rock is. I’m George Crozer, the new owner. Some of you may remember me as the owner of Crozer & Crozer orchids in New Hampshire. Due to a freeze and a divorce, I left the business for awhile to take a break...

    New "Orchidarium"

    I have decent plexi, and have it cut to fit over the screen top. Therefore, warping probably wont be much of an issue. Truth be told, I wish the lights would generate more heat... since it is in a basement, temps are running on the cooler end of things. We are also in that weird stage between...

    New "Orchidarium"

    The ExoTerra boxes are nice, and honestly convenient. Many sizes available and you can even get fancy looking stands for them! Although mine is in a basement, The ExoTerras are nice enough to put out in a family room etc. Currently, without any specific heating source, temps rum about 68-72...

    New "Orchidarium"

    I thought about that, but I think i"m going to go with metal screen to hang mounted plants from. But I am considering a "natural" terrarium in the future.

    New "Orchidarium"

    In the next few days I'll be adding a piece of plexiglass on the top which will have 2 CPU fans mounted to it and metal screening for the back and side wall for hanging mounted plants. Shelves later on as the plant collection increases. Does anyone have any comments? Any suggestions?

    New "Orchidarium"

    So, not really a beginner with orchids... but a full beginner growing in an orchidarium. Here is the set up as it stands today: - Exo-Terra 36x18x36 terrarium - 4ft.

    Good advice!

    What's a good systemic fungicide?

    In all honesty, in the picture it looks like the oldest leaf on the oldest growth. To me, it looks like it's shedding it, or perhaps stressed... possibly from putting energy into flowering. It does not look like any infection to me, but photos can be deceiving. Ray might be correct and his...
