the winter dry period
hey guys, my first winter with my orchids are soon to come. i am in need of learning the "how to's" for the dry rest.
i have my Neo. falcata, Den. kingianum, Den. honey (still needing conformation), a Phal. noid, a Paph. noid, and a Paph. moquettianum x delenatii.
i know the dends and the neo need the dry rest, while the phal and paphs dun really need it.
i know that does NOT mean just dun water for the whole winter. but how should i water? no soaking for the dends and neos but can i still soak for the phal and paphs when they are starting to get quite dry?
and when it comes to the fertilizers, does that i mean i should just hold back on all of it or do i keep fertilizing whichever orchids i still see in active growth?
thanks.
