#orchids #orchideen #orquideas Meaning well and wanting to protect orchids from fungus attacks and infections which can lead to bacterial infections and all sorts of other issues that can take the orchid out, and then, doing something that actually takes the orchid out, is as close to a disaster as it can be. I had copper fungicide, but I overdosed on this occasion as I was expecting a lot of rain to follow. I was planning for the rain to flush the pots and with that, the orchids would be protected. The rain never came and I lost many orchids due to this treatment. Here is an example that fought back together with me! I consider this orchid rescued, 2 years later! #beginners #orchidcare 🌸 Make this channel work for you! I am very open to any comments or questions, this video may have brought up.

#orchideen #orchidcare #orquideas If you live in a dry climate, then a little bit of moss on the surface of your pots is a great help to help keep the base of the orchid protected from dry air. New orchid roots can get to the media faster without drying out before they reach it. However, moss will grow, and grow and grow and slowly encroach on the rhizome of your orchids which, when the base is thin and delicate, as is the case with my Laelia Amethyst, invites rot to set it quickly. Grooming the base of your orchid's rhizome has to be part of the maintenance and care routine! To be on the safe side 👍🏼 #repot #plants #roots #tips #beginners 🌸 Make this channel work for you!

#plants #exotic #tropical Once upon a time, many of the houseplants that I can find in my garden centre, were part of what I grew. As space is limited, the orchids took over. Still, I admire the beauty of the leaves with every garden centre visit. The metallic ones really catch my eye and well, the alocasia zibrina, is just out of this world stunning 🫣🤪🥊 #philodendron #houseplants #alocasia #zebrina #leaves 🌸 Make this channel work for you!

#orchideen #orquideas #orchidcare While every epiphytic orchid can be grown using LECA only, some orchids need longer than others to adjust, especially if the environmental conditions are not 100% perfect. Those environmental conditions are temperatures no lower than 20ºC / 68ºF and bright shade for orchids in leca to do well. The evaporative cooling has a negative effect on the orchid's root system IF the ambient temperatures drop below 20ºC / 68ºF. However, lava rock can be used in semi hydroponics as well and does not have the evaporative cooling characteristics, so... for orchids that you are not certain will do well in leca and you want to use inorganic media anyway, then lava rock is a fantastic alternative. #lava #rock #inorganic #repotting #plants #rescue #beginners 🌸 Make this channel work for you!

#orchideen #orchideenpflege #orquideas Learn how leca and semi hydroponics make orchids grow. Orchids are challenging plants to grow and they need regular repotting. Orchids are expensive orchids to purchase and then maintain. It is highly recommended to change out the media of your orchid every 2 years. This gets very expensive and seems silly, especially if your media still looks good. The fact that organic media breaks down a little bit, changes the climate in the pot and orchids are not the same as houseplants that don't need as frequent repotting, makes the upkeep of orchids quite a burden on your wallet. Growing orchids in inorganic media, long term makes orchid growing cheaper. LECA can be recycled over and over again! #orchidcare #tips #tricks #tipsandtricks #beginners #repotting 🌸 Make this channel work for you!

#orchids #mount #inorganic Growing orchid keikis from propagation can't be easier than this! The hardest part is having the patience for them to grow, mature and bloom. Many dendrobiums produce keikis without needing any help at all. These keikis can remain on the plant for many years and thrive, but it is always nice to start another cluster of the same orchid using keikis. My advice, have patience and enjoy the process of seeing your baby orchids mature and then bloom. Please do not take advice from any promises of a miracle method that claims your keikis will mature within a single year. Orchids do not grow that fast and you will only risk loosing your keikis. #orchideen #orchidcare #orquideas #beginners #tips #tricks #tipsandtricks 🌸 Make this channel work for you!

#phalaenopsis #repotting #tips This phalaenopsis has been in my collection for 5 years now and appears to be dealing with the winter conditions 'ok'. However, 2023, saw me loosing 4 leaves very quickly, which was alarming. It left me with a very long stem and a lot of the roots are circling the pots as opposed to getting hydrated properly if they were in the pot. For that reason, I am repotting this summer bloomimg phalaenopsis orchid to get all the roots into the pot, repositioning it lower into the pot and contemplating a stem cut to tidy the orchid up for the coming years. I hope this orchid will stay in my collection and not succumb to the winter conditions 🤞🏼 #species #orchids #orchideen #orquideas #orchidcare #tricks #beginners 🌸 Make this channel work for you!

#orchids #substrate #comparison Same orchid, same genus, different grow environment, different set ups and organic vs. inorganic media for seedlings. The seedling grown in bark, with a wet dry cycle culture, has made exponential progress within the same time frame as the seedling grown in inorganic media in semi hydroponics. I want to thank @michaelmccarthy4077 for giving me permission to use his images to show you this comparison. Other environmental factors could play a role in the fact that my orchid is on the verge of collapse, it could also be that my orchid was not from good stock, and then of course, my lack of judgement as to whether my conditions are suitable for growing this orchid could also play a role. Now that I have substituted the wet seramis to medium size lava rock, I am hoping that I can do with inorganic media, what has been achieved with bark. When all else fails, lava rock should do the trick 🤞🏼 #orchideen #laelia #orquideas #tips #beginners 🌸 Make this channel work for you!

#orchids #slippers #tips 👍🏼 This super trick to support a monopodial orchid with no roots, not only was inspired, but it WORKS! 🙌🏼 the orchid has to be supported solid in the pot and without roots, I could have just staked it, and then hope for the best. But, the leaves were limp and the nutrition flow was interrupted because of the kinks in the leaves, so in order to support them upright, allowing for hydration and nutrients to flow into the the leaves of the orchid, I needed a support that would hold the leaves in place until the orchid had rooted in. Which after several years, this orchid is well rooted in. Now we just wait for a bloom 😊 #orquideas #tricks #inspired #orchideen #beginners #repotting 🌸 Make this channel work for you!

Once mounted on the hob filter material and a sandwhich lunch box grid, back in 2020, methinks that come 2024, we are going to see blooms.

#orchids #transition #semihydro This orchid is the first phalaenopsis that I successfully transitioned from organic media to inorganic media, back in 2020. After many attempts to get it right with phalaenopsis in semi hydro, this gorgeous big lipped pink phalaenopsis helped me figure out what I was doing wrong all the prior years. She is growing beast mode for the past 3 years and I could not be more impressed with everything about her. Transition your orchids successfully to semi hydroponics and save your wallet the burden of having to purchase organic media over and over again. Recycle your media and grow happy orchids.

#fungi #orchids #scale Time to say goodbye to some orchids as they leave the patio. I explain why I failed at these orchids, to the best of my knowledge. I also have a mystery fungus making it's rounds on some orchids, which I show in this video, in the hopes to find a solution to stop the spread. So far, it has mainly affected dendrobiums despite my best efforts to treat the structures religiously. Dendrobiums do not take well to systemic fungicides so, I am at a loss as to what else to do. #orchideen #orquideas #orchidcare #beginners #dendrobium #tolumnia 🌸 Make this channel work for you!

#catasetum #orchids #blooms So you think you know your orchid and then it does something so unusual that you just appreciate it even more! Catasetinae orchids have this amazing trait to bloom male blooms and female blooms at different times of the year, or on the same spike or at the same time on 2 different spikes! CRAZY!! My Catasetum Orchidglade Jack Of Diamonds does this remarkable female bloom trick end of summer and eventually it will produce a male spike! If you did not know any better, you would question what kind of orchid you bought, because the male and female blooms on catasetinae look nothing alike! #orchideen #orquideas #orchidcare #tips #beginners 🌸 Make this channel work for you!

#orchids #orchidcare #repotting BEST KEPT SECRETS REVEALED! In this insightful video we delve into the world of orchids post-repotting. Let's talk about "What to Expect After a Repot, Not an Up Pot!" I'll guide you through the various outcomes that may surprise you after a repot, even with the best intentions and new root growth. Key Insights Covered: Understanding Different Outcomes: Orchids can respond uniquely after repotting. I'll unravel the mysteries and address the common surprises that orchid enthusiasts encounter. Prosthechea Cochleata Var. Lancifolia Experience: Using my recent division of Prosthechea Cochleata Var. Lancifolia as an example, we'll explore the impact of a substantial root ball cleanup. Learn why some pseudobulbs may shrivel, lose their shine, or shed leaves post-repot. Managing Viable Roots: Discover the delicate balance of leaving a percentage of viable roots during repotting. Understand why certain orchids may shed their still viable root system and how the new roots eventually rejuvenate the structures. Impact on Growth: Uncover why the next growth after a repot might be smaller, with leaves exhibiting unique characteristics. I'll share tips on adjusting fertilization levels post-repot to support the transition. Bloom Expectations: Learn about the potential changes in blooming patterns – from fewer blooms to alterations in vibrancy. Understand the importance of creating a supportive environment post-repot for optimal recovery. Dealing with Deficiencies: Explore how repotting can temporarily affect nutrient uptake, leading to deficiencies. Get insights into prepping your orchid with calcium and magnesium beforehand to minimize nutrient-related issues. Stalling Root Tips: Acknowledge the possibility of root tips stalling or stopping growth temporarily post-repot. I'll provide practical tips, including regular flushing, to support root recovery. Moisture Management: Navigate the delicate balance of moisture levels in the pot, especially when roots may not be functioning optimally. Understand the importance of flushing to maintain ideal humidity. Positive Progress: Celebrate the signs of successful recovery, including new growth progressing without stress indicators. Witness the development of new structures, signaling the orchid's resilience. #orchideen #orquideas #orchidcare #beginners #repot #stress #tips #repotcare 🌸 Make this channel work for you!

#orchids #blooms #laelia This Laelia perrinii has a 2 week bloom phase IF THAT! The orchid does 'nothing' for 9 months of the year. 3 months before Laelia perrinii blooms a new growth starts, it goes relatively quickly and then she will bloom with gorgeous elegant rose fragrant luxurious looking blooms. IF the blooms on Laelia perrinii last 2 weeks, that is a great run. Normally, the blooms are spent after 10 days. #orchideen #orquideas #orchidcare #beginners Make this channel work for you!

#orchids #orchidcare #cam Ever wondered how some plants, including orchids, manage to endure months without water? Unlock the secrets of orchid survival with this video! Join me on a fascinating journey into the world of CAM (Crassulacean Acid Metabolism) and discover why it's a crucial adaptation for certain orchids. In this deep dive, I explore the significance of CAM in orchids like Cattleyas, Epidendrums, Dendrobiums, and Phalaenopsis. CAM allows these orchids to absorb and store carbon dioxide at night, minimizing water loss during the day—an essential survival strategy, especially in arid conditions. Join the orchid geek-out session as I answer the questions: What is CAM, and how does it work? Why do orchids use CAM photosynthesis, and how does it help them thrive? Explore the fascinating relationship between altitude and CAM expression, shedding light on why certain orchids exhibit CAM traits. Discover how CAM plays a vital role in acclimating your new orchids to their new environment. Uncover the resilience of orchids with CAM adaptation and the link between altitude and water-saving strategies. Stay till the end for a bonus tip on identifying CAM orchids in your collection based on leaf characteristics. This video is your go-to resource for understanding Crassulacean Acid Metabolism in orchids. #CAMPhotosynthesis #adaptations #tips #beginners #orchideen #orquideas #questions #answer 🌸 Make this channel work for you!
