I have a group of 5 seedlings, and one is pushing a bud! These came from Achima breeding (Thailand)

Amazing! That is pretty dang fast and so well!

Do you grow in a greenhouse?
I love how green moss is growing all over creating a natural look.
May I ask what is under the sheet of the moss?

It looks like about two other seedlings may come into bloom soon.

Hopefully they will be good!

Yes i have space in a greenhouse,

They are potted in a special paph mix recipe i found on the net, and now i cant find my bookmark of it! Ill try and find it again. The gist of it consisted of fine bark, perlite, silica sand, aquarium gravel, tiny amound of dolomite, wetted with fertilizer and put in a plastic bag and kept anerobic for at least 3 weeks tied up.

Edit found it: http://forum.theorchidsource.com/ubbthreads.php/ubb/printthread/Board/4/main/6586/type/thread.html

But also they receive regular humic acid, seaweed fertilizer, and occasional msu fert.
