Animal waste would provide both, and ammonia is the first nitrogenous compound produced when any organic material decays. Conversion of...

Depends on the potting mix and the user's skills to control the pH in the media. A quite safe option is a 1/1.5 to 1 NO3/NH4 with...

Do you remember this PDF from Floricultura Holland: https://www.floricultura.com/media/3754/paphiopedilum_pot_plant_en.pdf Peters...

He is on facebook. He just bloomed a bunch of roths in a little over 3 years from flask. Whatever he is doing it clearly works.

Dear Sanderianum, I just remember having read in a celebrated book some lines which may be of interest : « No genus or race of...

Venustum’s seem to be the easiest of all my Paph’s, as well as my favorite. In my opinion, the are the “wildest”, most “uncharted”...

Never say never, it has been some time since my last posts on composts, so I do understand your assumptions. I do not know whether I...

All nice roots. If you want to practice some more I have a few plant...:p

I got tired of making a separate mix. The roots were not dead. If a seedling grows next to the mother plant in nature, that seedling...

The science is called "logic". Roots can absorb a limited volume of solution in a short period of time. Expose them to a solution...

Fert every water, in my condition, twice a week. Moss thrives on the media. High humidity, not less than 75%, lots of fresh air. After...

In a few hours, urea will raise pH slightly then usually in short and long term, lower the pH. Roots in general release ions that match...

If you have the photo of recovered plant, I'd like to see, hp7. I don't think that it is due to the type of light. It is true that the...

I have. It's just a response to irritation. Happens when I accidentally get bark/sand/perlite dust in the crown of my Paphs, too.

For me, pH is the main factor. When pH is not matched with the plant, plants have a hard time taking these ionic form of nutrients. It's...
