With 1 gr per 2 l for all your orchids weekly? I was thinking to give double for phals and the recommended 1 gr per 2 l for paphs..

Thank you JustinR, I should cut fertilizing weekly cause I thought that I have a grow lamps but they are so weak. Keep Phalaenopsis hieroglyphica humid like @big923cattleya explain so well and lightly fertilizing 1 month during wintertime with MSU analogue Rainmix (Europe version). Sounds a...

Hi Ray, "Deep in moss" was a little bit figurative, I made it like a nice guy from Orchidweb demonstrated in YouTube. I was searching for proper video and try to made it this way, wrapping the roots of the phal. Right now, plant is placed in the kitchen (humid and hot) bagged above. Ray, thank...

Very nice set up, really stylish. Actually, my led "grow" lights are totally useless - 15 PPFD μmol/(m2-s) in the evening, at canopy level. So, I'm looking for plant stand trolley form amazon or Ikea and I will assemble it with real grow lights. Thank you all for the help, without your guidance...

Actually, the “ joy” is deep in sphagnum moss with kelpak influence, waiting for more roots… It was ok in kanuma substrate (acid one for azaleas) and was doing ok but I had to water every day, at summer twice per day, I decided to change with small bark + perlite.

Thank you! Joy spring is so slow growing and I thought that’s has to be some special regarding care, thanks for your time!

Not to hijack the topic but I measured my water in such a tester (7-function in one) at the different water temps (64 to 74 range), the TDS was jumping like basketball player.

A little bit off topic, interesting pots, any feedback, pls?

Thank you very much for guidance I downloaded PPFD meter and right know I’m reading the manual. Very useful info regarding how to use properly artificial light and the links from Amazon. At least but not last, I love your signature - the quote from Voltaire. Very, very true!

Yes, indeed, it's really compact, 3 ways to use it and it's available in Europe too, thank you very much for "lightening" me!

Thank you big923cattleya, yes, indeed in not expensive to run. I have to think about "chains to hang it from and heavy duty wiring". My family is not going to be happy about that, unfortunately. I downloaded the PPFD meter app, like TyroneGenade and after work I'll measure to see If mine lamps...

60 watts, from the seller description:"Blue light (420nm-460nm) can promote plant germination and seedling growth, red light (630nm-660nm) can promote the plant flowering and fruiting, white 3500K high uniform light increases light intensity and is good for the whole plant growth phase."

I suppose that mine have to be changed, thank you for the illustrative exemple.

Winter time and sunlight is to 4 p.m. I found some cheap grow lights in the basement and I’m wondering if they do more harm than good ( see pic below). I read the forum and the recommendations were 750 fc for 10 hours approximately … Could you help me with choice to use them if yes, which...

Do you have experience with those phals? Any special requirements for care? They are potted in bark.
