Dorchid’s Flasks

[Dorchid]

Some flasks moving up today. Been in these vessels just shy of 4 months; last pic is from June 16 when they went in. A cattleya cross I made.

Looking good.

 

[Ozpaph]

they are ready for outdoor living!

 

[PhilaGardener]

Wonderful looking seedlings! Nice growing!

 

[Dorchid]

Thanks for looking, all! These were plated 5/16/23 so right at 1 year 5 months. I’m still learning some things and hope to shorten that a tad for catts and the like but seems pretty good nonetheless.

Some recently deflasked C. aurantiaca. These were some of my first seeds sown and they were in flask way too long. Seem to be doing well.

Some Innobulbum (Den.) munificum starting to kick off some new growths. These are tiny plantlets, deflasked a month or so.

Some Cattleya rex starting to take shape.

That is awesome to look at. Very impressive flasks!

Wow. You seem to have a knack. These plants GLOW.

Same age, different conditions.

 

[Roots]

Would you be willing to elaborate on what the conditions were? Were they also different crosses?

 

[Dorchid]

You bet…I should have said “different media”…these are all the same seed with the first 2 pics (I re-ordered them in the post) showing the difference in development due to different germination media formulations and the last 2 being initial replates, also on different media formulations. There are some real beasts in that 3rd pic.
