    RO filter water pressure.

    50-300 TDS is considered excellent

    RO filter water pressure.

    what do you mean by poor results? the filters should catch a good chunk of the salts. we have a 4 stage rodi from bulk reef supply and it cranks out a slow trickle. i'm thinking low pressure just reduces volume.

    my new little monster

    thought i'd post a pupdate. ziggy's 80lbs now and is still filling out. he is like a horse compared to all the other doodles. (pic from our sitter with golden and aussie doodles) he's not quite a true giant but is def a big boy. he's big but gentle and is especially fond of the tiny toy dogs...

    is my mexi in sheath?

    is the pointy leaf in the crown a red herring?

    Ice Age x Pacific Shamrock

    i love the dramatic change in color in these white complex paphs. it's still super wonky but feels like a totally different flower after the lightening. fun! 😊

    Paphiopedilum micranthum budding

    How to you keep you micranthum growth so uniform? My plants send out growth shoots similar to mexipedium and are all over the place. Yours are so well behaved.

    Brown markings.

    I had similar markings from adding pro-biotics to my watering solution. I did rinse off right away but could totally see that stuff staining if allowed to dry. Even the roots browned (not the normal fuzzy khaki color) for a little while.

    Ice Age x Pacific Shamrock

    Just opened this morning. Very wonky all around. I had a feeling this bloom would end up wonky since the spike/bud was growing sideways and all twisty. Hope the bloom relaxes a little as it lightens.

    Mt.Toro (Swindled again!)

    wow that's really rough to hear 15 years only to find the plant isn't what you expected. makes me wonder how many "oops wrong plant" i have in my small collection. echoing what @TyroneGenade said, at the very least it's pretty.

    Ruby Charm (helenae x Wonderful Ruby)

    this one's a vini. just opened this morning. very cute outcome although i wish the plant was smaller like helenae. will take pics in natural light when the sun decides to shine.
