All good advice. If I may add one more, always keep notes and a complete record of everything you do with your orchids. I only have a modest orchid collection numbering and photographing every plant. I have compiled a scrap book, every few pages devoted to just one of my orchids in turn. Starting with the photograph, I then record the name, when and where the orchid came from. When to water, a flowering record and any cultural problems. Although I only have 18 orchids so far, my scrapbook makes for very interesting reading, especially during the long winter evenings when I can remember back to them flowering in the summer.
