Yesterday, I noticed 2 of my catts new growing leads have tiny pearls(think pinhead size) of clear sticky fluid between the axils of the leaves of the growing pseudobulb. Don't know if 'leaves' is the correct term, they are the part of the pseudobulb that will turn brown and papery when pb. is fully developed.These new leads look very robust and healthy. None of the catts have any bugs, which was the first thing I checked for.
I've had great root production and increased size and number of new leads on most of my catts since bumping up my culture (RO, more fert at lower doses, more attention to air circ.)since joining this forum last fall. I am quite surprised by the amount and quality of the new growths and roots.To be honest, I felt my catts were just surviving last year.
Could I be fertilizing too much? Do some catts secrete minute amounts of plant sap when growing? I grow them indoors in a sunroom. Does anyone know what this clear,slightly sticky liquid means,and if I need to change anything I am doing??
Thanks for reading this and all input greatly appreciated!!
