LAELIA CRISPA - Don't let the SEEDLING SIZE MISLEAD, because this one will become a beast one day!

Bought in 02/20, and so far I have not repotted it. Why? I explain that in this video. So, thank you for joining me, while I assess the status of this seedling, a species from Brazil. It was quite pricey, bought from Wichmann Orchideenzucht in Germany, so... wether they are hard to come by, or, I was overcharged. No complaints, though, it is a healthy little seedling, and I hope that now that it is in my preferred seedling set up, semi hydro together with seramis, it will grow on strong. It has a new growth, which I am keeping an eye on with regards to it's growing direction so that it can stay in the current container for at least 2 years. Time to get those roots growing and begin taking up nutrients. I have as yet to find someone who is also growing this species, so, if that is you, please leave me a comment and let me know how you are growing it and in which part of the world. Thank you, everyone for watching! This video took a long time to upload, because I was trying to deal with software issues, which are not yet resolved... I still hope that you get something out of it, and thank you for your patience!
