    Getting enough Nitrogen?

    Ray, Is the pH of the RO water too low with the Dyna-Grow added? Is it because there isn't enough calcium and magnesium in it? It's been many years since I've taken chemistry.

    Indoor Humidity

    Thanks everyone for the replies. I only run the humidifier a few hours in the late evening, my days off, and a few hours during the day... So it's not always 60% humidity in the room. I won't run the humidifier while I'm not home. So far there is no mold on the windows that I can see. One...

    Indoor Humidity

    I grow my orchids indoors, in a bedroom. I try to keep the humidity around 60%. What would be a good humidity level that wouldn't cause mold growth in the house or damage to the walls or other problems? If I don't use the humidifier in the winter it drops down to the 40's.

    Getting enough Nitrogen?

    In the winter I don't usually need to water between fertilizer applications (once a week). The room is very cool, I try to keep the humidity around 60%... So the pots take longer to dry out between waterings. I should be flushing between fertilizing, right?

    Getting enough Nitrogen?

    K-Lite: 40 ppm N Dyna-Gro: 23 ppm N Is that too low for once a week? I use R/O water.

    Getting enough Nitrogen?

    I fertilize my orchids once a week. I usually alternate between K-Lite (12-1-1) and Dyna-Gro Orchid Pro (7-8-6). The weeks that I am using the Dyna-Gro, do you think my orchids are getting enough Nitrogen? My orchids leaves are all a healthy looking green color...
