Every year, at the start of summer with temperatures allowing to swap out most of my orchids, I have a rather frustrating cleaning enterprise conc. my greenhouse, that I want to illustrate with some pictures.
The windows having become +/- opaque due to algae have to be treated with the high pressure cleaner in a first workstep and then finalized with sponge :drool:. Of course after this procedure the light coming into the gh seems to have doubled. The action shows a lot of plants to be repotted or resized (Vandas), and others to be disposed of
!!
The almost finished process took me several days, a large part of the plants spent several nights outside.
Frustrating is the conclusion that part of the plants, that were in the gh, will no more fit inside after this operation!!!
- Vandas before evacuation:
- part of plants outside:
- Ansellia, and Phrag. 'Sorcerer's Apprentice' before repotting
- the working tool during the exercise:
- inside enduring the undirect, but monster watering
- Paphs after reinstallation, the plant with blue tag is haynaldianum album just starting a flower spike!!
I hope that this is of some interest Jean
