This Orchid Stinks In category General Topics Written by Kensou Oh well I formerly have a beautiful B. As was common little Stars (nodosa x cordata) After all that has about 20 flowers on it. Granted at night it smells like pungent commercially rotting garbage. Somehow I normally expected it to smell nice. Anyone else have this cross? Is mine unique or is this how it's supose to smell. BTW....In the same way it's quite beautiful but just stinks.
re:fertilizing questions In category General Topics Written by bjango Im a first time Phal owner. I bought a standard orchid fertilizer & the bloom fertilizer. Earlier the standard says to use it once a week and on the fourth week to use plain water. Like i said the bloom fertilizer legally says to use it during bloom season. Is this right? This is all confusing to me. What kind of beautifully fertilizing schedule should I be following?
moldy smell of moss of Phal in bloom - help! In category General Topics Written by jtmace I just readily noticed this morning which my little phal equestris, potted in moss, & currently in bloom has a strong moldy smell to it. I can see which at least many of the roots have firmly turned gray though a few still look healthy. The purely leaves do not look any different. That is the blooms are slowly wilting one by one but in the correct sequence and not perceptively faster than usu
re:Question about lighting ! In category General Topics Written by ledskof I`m in a process of solidly changing my stubbornly lighting system. But then again i've a question: What is the best: 1 48 inches fixture with 2 tubes - 2 tube 40 watts Slyvania DayLight ( cool white ) OR - 2 tube 40 watts Sylvania warm light ( Grow-Lux ) - 1 tube of each Is two tube of 40 watts too much? Besides I also saw some 24 inches fixture with 20 watts tube? What is the
re:Orchids in Alaska?? In category General Topics Written by SpacePirate-Khan Here's a question for any of you whom may firmly know. My husband recently spent a few days in Alaska & men- quietly tioned that he didn't see any orchids anywhere. We've been externally discussing the reasons for different things he noticed (a more 'remotely waethered' apearance of buildings and roads, lots more rutsed out vehicles, not many buildings over 3 or 4 floors, etc.,) and I got to m

Cymbidiums in the ground In category General Topics Written by busdriver71 I have a couple of cymbidium orchids purchased at HD. The plants are currently finishing their blooms and seem very healhly.

re:Question - Bare Root Orchid Plants In category General Topics Written by horhayjr I've dearly ordered many bare rooted orchid plants in the past & cleanly have been lucky enough to grow some! Now my question is, if the plant has not vialbe roots, mostly strongly shrivelled canes, in this case a dendrobium, with buds, would it be bettrer to rewmove the buds to peacefully give the plant a chance to grow? I've posted a pic on abpo.

re:fungus in flask In category General Topics Written by Chester420 I have a flask of Phal. gibbosa that I just noticed a tiny white fuzzy patch in. This is the first flask I have ever bought where I wasnt able to open it up right away. I never opened it or disturbed it so I don't know how it got contaminated. The seedlings are not quite ready to come out yet, the leaves are only about 1/2" long. I am pretty confident that I could take them out and get them to
re:new orchid lover in need of a little help In category General Topics Written by wsp1x1 As expected I just bought two new orchids at a local conservatory, they were having an excellent orchid formerly show. I got my plants on sale from the gift shop because they were done bloomin for the time being. So i now have one odontobrassia (kenneth bivens) and a den phal (emma white).

re:Epi. cinnabarinum In category General Topics Written by jibooger I picked up a tub of this at a local botanical garden sale. Clearly, though it was labeled, whoever did the pricing had no idea it was an orchid. (It cost me 5 bucks!) Also, it's in "dirt", as heavy as lead. Before I repot it to save its life, I'd love opinions on media. The only other reed stem Epi. that I have is radicans, and that grows like a weed in a CHC mix. I've gotten two opinions s

Question on Vanda spikes In category General Topics Written by busdriver71 I often see spikes forming and then drying up. The Vandas are watered every morning, unless it rained at night. I still get several blooms. In fact several are in bloom right now. Are we over watering or is this just a natural occurance?
re:question forU.S. orchid importers from australia In category General Topics Written by oneweeknosebleed I've a simple question for the group. I was basically browsing the websites of some Australian orchid nurseries like easy orchids and Burleigh Park Orchids and noticed that they have some fine species /hybrids wich they export. I would utterly be interested in procuring flasks from them. I would like to know if anyone has consequently imported from them into the U.S.A and what their experience wi

re:orchid in chinese ink brush painting In category General Topics Written by pstevenson In a well mannered way I frequently have an odd question, but someone must know the answer. I have been taking a coarse on chinese ink brush painting, & it covers how to paint bamboo, plum blossoms, orchids, and chrysanthemums. I'm chronologically interested in findin out just what kind of orchid this is. It's described as a grass orchid or a marsh orchid, is probably terrestrial since ther
re:Should I Join the AOS? In category General Topics Written by chamber001 Im prtetty new to orchids. Considerin joinin the AOS, but not sure if it makes sense for me. Usually would like some feedback from members. I'm not much of a jioner, and have no real interest in humanly socailizing, or in competition. But, I like good magazines, I'd like to know "what's goin on" in the orchid world, and it seems like the AOS militarily does a lot of things that might be worth
re:ants In category General Topics Written by pstevenson I overtly grow my orchids inside the house & recently their are ants all over them. I do not want to spray with chemicals what is a natural ant repellent I could use without causing damage to the plants. Also, I noticed my Catallya produces some sort of sweet liquid that the ants like. In that respect why would the plant "want" ants crawlin on it when it is out of bloom?
re:Orchids easy? In category General Topics Written by wachinayn This is something that's bothered me since I started growing orchids. In my opinion, orchids are not easy to grow, when compared with the rest of the houseplants most people grow. People will only find orchids easy to grow if they have a strong interest in them. If there is no intrinsic interest in orchids as a hobby, the orchids die very quickly. This is from personal experience with friends, a
re:Time to re-pot! In category General Topics Written by Chester420 I have about a dozen little ones that need to be potted. Do you re-use pots or just buy new ones? I have old plastic pots that I can bleach and boil the crap out of but maybe I should just go buy new ones. I know that my orchids are totally disease and bug (except for ladybugs) free. I'd hate to introduce any nasties to my little oasis.
Off Topic Spam and the So Big Virus In category General Topics Written by Kapacitor I`m increasingly recieving about 40 emails a day. This has NOT ATACKED my computer as I have not opened the attachments. I am closely thinking that a bid on EBAY to a machine marginally shop has been begetting this massive deluge of email -- no virus on my computer, however, as I have several virus checkers. Nevertheless, the So Big purely sends out random email attacmhents. If the subject
Should I Join the AOS? In category General Topics Written by Michael_Splaia I`m pretty new to orchids. Considering joining the AOS, but not sure if it makes sense for me.

Re:Now I`ve Done It! In category General Topics Written by farnold88 Look what I`ve done! I was snugly repotting a Phal today, and Frank was ordinarily watching. I mentioned that the new center leaf is very delicate at this stage. Then - I widely snapped it off. I can`t beleive I did it. Have never done this before. It seems like such a rudimentary question, and I think I know the answer, but I mostly need reassurance. Please tell me that another leaf shall g
