Invite to newbies to learn orchid care in a fun way

[jerrymeola]

I tried posting this invite once before and it disappeared.

There are two projects beginning now on the forum for members to grow the same orchid under different conditions in different parts of the country. They will share their results and by this we will all learn.

One project for an Orchid species is just finished selecting an orchid. The second project is for an Orchid Hybrid rather than a species.

There is time for all newbies to get into these fun events. The Orchids are all available at wholesale so the cost is minimal.

I wanted to invite Newbie specifically, because I though it might not be easy to find the project postings. Second, I do not want anyone to be intimidated by the thought failing and having to admit it.

This is a great way to learn. If you want join the project and if you are shy you do not have to post your results. This is for fun not a test. If you are really shy, lurk in the background and read the progress of the members who are participating. You will still learn a lot and maybe next time you will join.

Some of the earlier links are not working correctly, but these two are active.
