    Yet another example of "Less is More" with Feeding

    Thats the reason why I bought ProTekt Aint getting it from decayed media in my house It helps with the uptake of some micronutritions I believe. (Lol, gotta do some more reading before I comment any further on these things.) I like this thread, so many things to go do a search and read more...

    Yet another example of "Less is More" with Feeding

    I know- but I've read that if you're gonna make kelp-tea to use as extract it smells while "cooking" Never tried to make though- besides, I would probably mess up something. (The reason for reading about that was to see if I could make something that would give me some of the benefits of the...

    Yet another example of "Less is More" with Feeding

    I think he has a point. Less is sometimes more. For an advanced grower with experience it might not be that interesting, the point often being the search for the optimal nutrition and light levels- to make the plant shine the best it can. But its an important thing for beginners to see. You...

Humidity in house: 30% Humidity in pots: 40-50% Temperature: 19-26/ 65-80F Long answer: Roots: they just got this way without feeding or anything. It...

    Why don't you show me your leaves?

    Oh my god- that's like discovering a candystore I did a search. Oh my, a nursery not that far away. I am sooooo happy! My wallet might not be that happy though I am speechless (well, almost)- this is awesome! Only three hours away- I am so ready for a roadtrip! Maybe I can show some leaves...

    Two Paph. appletonianums

    Yeah, I figured that since they are siblings :p I was wondering if parent was one plant being both parent. Pollen and everything. If one plant was pollen and other plant pollinated if those plant had the same traits. (Maybe these dont do selfpollinated either- dont know.) Lol, just me not...

    Why don't you show me your leaves?

    Thanks :) Eller kanskje jeg skulle si takk for velkomsten:):) Rogaland, sånn forresten. I am not active in the norwegian forum because it seem a bit non-active. Kind of. Well, I only have the bellatulum and the seedlings- so lets see if I can keep them alive :p

    Two Paph. appletonianums

    Was the parent plants different from eachother? I just assumed that was more common in crosses, or maybe the parents didnt look the same. Have no idea. Both are beautiful though :)

    Hello (warning: big pictures)

    Gego: well, my phal period is mostly done- I like bulbophyllums, and started to like paphiopedilum. I like most of them, not really cattleya person- but thats because they have very nice and elegant flower- I like the weird ones better I like my lycaste aromatica, because it smells like...

    Hello (warning: big pictures)

    Thanks all :) Regarding the roots I have been thinking it might be a defense- they had to make roots to survive in my house. I have had them in different pots- we dont have baskets either in my place… Yeah, no plants, no pots and no baskets. Oh- we dont have bark and moss either- only...

    Hello (warning: big pictures)

    Hello (warning: big pictures)

    I live in Norway, and I grow orchids in my living room (and kitchen). I have had orchids since 2008, not really caring for them until 2014. Between 2008 and 2014 they just got watered- fill up pot, wait until empty (maybe 2 weeks) and refill. Never repotted and never fertilized. In 2013/2014 I...

    Why don't you show me your leaves?

    Thanks :) I've seen it before, garysan- and I agree- its beautiful, and I need one on my list just because its a nice name (I'm buying more in september, when a vendor is coming to my country- species and some hybrids)
