Loving this series! I am guilty of potting up orchids as soon as I got them. You noticed I said “got” past tense as now I wait for new nubbins to appear or actively growing tips. Learned some hard lessons and lost a few favorites.

[josejkoonthanam]

Watched the highly useful video Nina. What's the duration of the wet dry cycle?

[RareRootsOfJoyMelbourne]

Our bio security laws in Australia mean importing any plants, including any grown in soilless media is pointless. They are all quarantined for 4 months, regardless of treatments done prior to importing, photosanitary paperwork and then there’s the mandatory treatments and inspections you have to do once they arrive. Does not matter. 4 months. The end.
The only time this does not apply is plants grown in tissue culture. So we all import flasks. Or grow on by other propagation means.
I am quite envious that you all get to import, but I also understand completely why we are so draconian about it.

Thank you so very much for your channel and your efforts to educate in the ways of growing and caring for orchids . I am a beginner with orchids... even though experienced gardener... and your methods with lava rock excite me. 😊

I found your video searching for bareroot orchid care. Very informative. One question, sorry if anyone already asked, you mentioned dry-wet cycle. How do you accomplish that? Drain the shallow water let the root completely dry and then add water back?

[robertforrest]

Awesome vid Nina!! 😀 I rarely order bare root plants. Most of my mini's come either mounted or potted. Enjoy the rest of your day kiddo.... 👋🏻

[michaelmccarthy]

maxima is definitely a vigorous root producer, unlike lawrenceana. Unfortunately it is slow to grow from seedling size, the ones I bought last year haven't really progressed much. I think the rex seedlings I deflasked last October have grown faster.
I just received a package from Thailand today. Only two of the plants still had leaves, surprising that any did after a month in transit. All I can do is give them all a soak, pot them up and wait. No fertilizer at all in the meanwhile, just enough plain water to moisten the sphagnum periodically. I'm a bit miffed because the plant that was the entire point of the order, Peristeria elata, is questionable at best. I guess if the Dendrobiums make it, it wasn't a complete waste of money. (there was a bensoniae in the mix)

[woowooone]

Would you do this with a phalaenopsis as well? And do you like to use small or large leca for phalaenopsis?

[tntneha]

Very nicely explained great information about plantation 👌🏼🙏

[JuliesOrchids]
