    Light questions

    These are hybrids from Ecuagenera. These are getting too low light I'm guessing? what fc do y'all shoot for? I was at Ecuagenera recently and it was super low around 500 fc or something. So that was confusing to me.. Also, do you measure light from middle of plant I'm guessing? What brand of...

    Paphiopedilums that bloom more than 1-2x per year?

    If there are two growths does it mean i cannot tell if my posts go thru sometimes, so apologies if I post 2x? If there are 2 growths does it mean it's mature? Is this one mature? https://gardinonursery.com/product/paphiopedilum-liemianum-2-pot/

    Paphiopedilums that bloom more than 1-2x per year?

    Hey thank you so much! Paphs are new to me, I have a handful of phrags that are doing pretty well. I mostly collect Phal species and vanda species. So I totally get what ur saying about species vs hybrids. When I have switched genera I usually need something that gets my attention or I lose...

    Watering long petal vs color Phrags

    Watering long petal vs color Phrags

    I did not add the osmocote, came that way from Ecuagenera. Dunno what they use for fertilizer otherwise. Yea I have a mix of medium fir bark charcoal and hydroton that might work better. But maybe if those plants are staying that wet I could just drop back watering to like 1x every week and half...

    Watering long petal vs color Phrags
