Not bad for a first bloom
Not for PEOY, the sanderianum influence makes it very shade-tolerant. It's getting around 70-80 par (translation: 12 inches from a regular old two-bulb shop light.)Congrats! Beautiful blooms! I purchased PEOY with flowers this spring. It has much lighter green leaves than yours. Mine is like apple green. Do you give much light to yours? I try to provide as much light as possible.
Thanks! What media are you using? How wet do you keep it?Not for PEOY, the sanderianum influence makes it very shade-tolerant. It's getting around 70-80 par (translation: 12 inches from a regular old two-bulb shop light.)
Hi, how about the temperature? How hot you have it daytime? And how low at night? I have mine outside on the covered patio as high as high 80s F. And night in the 60s. Sometime Mid 50s. It seems to grow faster than keeping it inside thanks.50/50 mix of #4 sponge rock and the largest size orchiata for the base. Add 5% charcoal, 5% oyster shell, then pot. Top dress with a bit of silica sand and chick grit. Then a layer of forest moss or a thinner layer of sphagnum. Water every 2nd day, or every day while blooming
I would grade this clone in the top 10% of the plants available in the US.
