 You guys are great -
The bark in the pots looks like the photo. I repotted them after they flowered 2 months ago. I have been watering them with a spray bottle with an orchid food in it (I'll post what what food I used after I get off work tomorrow) every 2 or 3 days and they stay above the kitchen sink. I usually spray all over until I see drainage at the bottom. I didn't soak the bark in water, but when my dog broke the vase last night, I noticed that the bark had some moisture/ damp but it seemed like the right amount to me based on what I've read. My climate is usually 75/60 this time of year and low humidity. I've also read that limp dark green leaves indicate too little light, but they did great for the first year in the same spot - no problems. They originally cam in spgm moss (freaked me out when I repotted - I've never seen it before and it was weird looking). Perhaps I need to go back to that. There are several healthy roots at the top and I clipped all dried up roots 2 months ago. I am unsure about some at the bottom - may need to trim more. Let me post some pictures of the roots tomorrow.  |
