And it turns out I'm dealing w root rot again lol, I don't get it, Ecuagenera said they water every other day. If I'm watering 1x per week how is that possible lol

So this is 2x week, plants from Ecuagenera (not blaming them lol).

thanks so much I'll look at that .org. Damned Phrags- Lol, I grow vandas and other epiphytes where I can see the roots, so to me it's a lot easier I bought all these pretty much from ecuagenera, they use a pretty water retentive mix by the looks of it, but they water every other day. I just...

Ah ok thanks again, v helpful. How weak do you do your fertilizer? And how much water do you leave in the saucer?

Hey thanks so much appreciate it. So maybe I'll try like half in water half not? I have Leslie Garay, de la virgen, humboltii fortuna, professor bream, sedenii, and 1 or 2 smaller bright ones. I asked above to someone else's reply going to ask the same here, so fertilize, rinse, then fill tray...

Cool yeah, thanks for the tips! I'm new to Phrags for sure. Tried bout a year ago but roots all got rot so now I'm nervous about the water tray thing. Maybe leave the long pedaled ones out and see how well the smaller colorful ones do w water in their tray. So fertilize, flush - then fill w water?

Very cool sounds like it's working for you

So is the general rule of thumb to leave water in a tray with the colorful Phrags and do not with the long petaled species/hybrids? I have both and I'm just watering once a week with all them, indoors. Seem to be doing ok? But maybe they could be doing better w what I'm referring to in this...

You're saying w a lower light level more spikes?

Cool thanks will c what happens w that

That's awesome got any extras lol?

Dammit lol so what fc am I trying to shoot for?

And what are your fc? I'll attach a pic

I have 5 t8, the t5 didn't get close to what a friend of mine uses. Reads 2500 at about a ft and a half away from the lights

Yea that's what I've heard w those that's cool. I've got a couple right now that r doing ok

Mid level of the plants, all at about the same height more or less w a light meter. And yea I don't think this eats too much into our electricity but yea maybe it's too much?

Wow that's cool, so many different ways of growing these it seems. That's neat

Yea I think I did burn a bit last week w fertilizer, good idea

Ok thanks so much, v helpful
