I am also curious about this- would they benefit from a shade cloth? Or are they resilient enough to be fine?

Being that I'm keeping my phrags pretty wet, I've been wondering about this. I appreciate the timing of this post. I don't think I will stretch it to 2 years until plants get bigger and I get a better feel for it.

Love your setup! Have you had to rearrange after getting lights involved?

Try making a separate new thread for your paph question! A lot of people may not see it here. I'm not experienced enough to give answers, but how were the roots when you repotted and when was that?

I know, I wish I still lived there for that reason alone! I'm sure they still bloom on. I went back and found some pics from that time. Watching tiny bees pollinate them (I'm assuming that's what they were doing, crawling out of the pouch up the back with a tight fit) is one of my favorite...

Don't be sorry! I'm just excited to see it :)

Bloom??

Well, besides those 😜 I meant orchids that grow air roots. I should have been more specific!

Newb question here- Is this universal across orchid genuses or more of a cattleya thing?

Hi from Montana! I am a bit new at growing under lights myself, but I use that app and it has been MASSIVELY better than nothing. Also here is a great blog post (by one of our members!) about light level guidelines to follow for typical 12 hour light cycles...

Montanum was found all over my neighborhood and in my backyard at my last house! I watched the tiny irridescent native bees pollinate them, and I miss them a lot, haha. I wouldn't expect to be able to grow anything if I didn't already have the right climate, which I don't think I have at our...

Ooh these fascinate me! I would love to get in to them someday if I'm situated in the right area.

The what now?! Are these the ones they came with that never did anything or new ones?

Welcome from MT!

This one is on my want list! Awesome growing!

Welcome from Montana! So sorry to hear about the loss of many of your plants during what sounds like an all-around traumatic time. Glad you are here.

Very neat!

It's not even every night, just occasional. I just feel like it's growing slower than before so I thought that might be why. Maybe not though!

You are correct! It is an alba.

The new growth on my paph. Delenatii has big variation in the size of its first and second leaves! (The third is still growing so should be ignored for now.) Is this normal? I also noticed it's growing much slower now that nights occasionally dip down to 50s, and typical day temps are in 60s or...
