Brad is very knowledgeable in growing orchids. His greenhouse is amazing! I think he knows what he is doing! I have been watching his channel for many, many years and have learned a lot from him!

[Grow_Up_Man]

Yeah, people really obsess about feeding orchids - when in reality orchids don't need that much. Another great video Brad.:)

Good to know about temps and slow release. with 4 seasons here this is why it makes me nervous. Even the temp in the home varies a lot between summer and winter here.

Hi Brad, My Phal has lost 4 of 8 leaves. When i pulled itout of it's pot there was a black spot on the bottom part of the stem but it's not mushy or slimy. Could it be stem rot and if it is, can I cut the stem to stop it the advancement? It has healthy roots above the spot. Could you please do a vid on stem rot, what it looks like and possibly save the orchid?

[thegiftlady]

Did you say the roots of that plant are in water, albeit not deep water?
EDIT: Just watched your vid on growing roots fast. Thinking my instincts are good as I am doing close to what you suggest. Ques about air. If I completely seal the aquarium w clear wrap how often should I open to give it air and for how long? Thanks! Your vid was a big help!
FYI. Aquariums are good for this. One of the chains puts them on sale $1 per gal so they are really cheap; the clear wrap is best for maintaining humidity.

I'm new to orchids and I'm trying to rescue a phal with barely a root! Leaves are long (7, about 7" long), dry, floppy but not laying down. I supported it in its pot with a zip tie & plant spike. Potted in pea gravel, river rock & lava rock. That pot is in another pot w pea gravel and a little water on the bottom. I spray daily with a little fert. water (cal mag & fish fert).
It's living in an old aquarium with 1" cleaned wet aquarium media to help maintain the humidity. I put saran wrap covering 2/3 of the top. Fan on low about an hour a day. Been in there about 10 days. No changes. Don't expect any real soon but the support seems to finally be helping stabilize it. What'cha think? Am I killing it or helping it?

[NUUTX]

Brad, is the osmocote okay to use in a sphagmoss/bark/pumice medium with Phals? Also, I am using distilled water and add cal mag to each watering. Is this good practice? When I do my pot flush, do immerse the pot with sphag/bark or just flush through from the top. Moss is my nemesis!! Thanks and love your channel.

[sueze]

Much better than yesterdays rat :) I have 4 orchids in that type of pot and thanks to a video you did a few years ago I just turn them upside down and get as much of the old growing medium out and then put in new. Love your orchid videos

[michelewillner]

Brad, how do you repot that plant? I have a few that look exactly like your plant! HELP!!!

[LearningCurveAcres]

Thanks for another great tutorial! Thanks to you I've been able to grow Phalaenopsis orchids and have them thrive. Have you had one send up a bloom spike and never bloom? One of mine is doing that. Thanks and take care - Marcie

[johnmickel]

Do you " spray " roots " ??

[sarahniven]

I didnt realize you could cut an orchid when it gets tall and it would still survive.

[nancymcdonald]

It looked like white fly was flying around your plant.

[laurafedora]

How do you deal with the media when it does bad?

[margaritafulshtinsky]

Hi, I can see that you are not an orchiman, 😂. Don't get offended. The best to cut the orchid on the bottom, and let left overs roots to grow a new baby orchid. Your orchid is not blossoming years already. You are neglecting your orchid. Sorry. This is not helping. I don't need weed to grow in my home.
