Thanks for the link.
I think this article was once covered in the Orchid magazine years ago, but probably part of it plus other informations like this chemical Ph.D Wang used, which I do not remember the name of, to make these plants bloom like crazy without the cue of the cold winter period.
I need that chemical!!
Anyway, at least for this group of plants, it again proves that "bloom booster" is not only a waste but can negatively affect flowering.
Also, low K is not good for these.
