Thanks Ray

been awhile. Life got in my way. Gonna go grow ya'll some more flowers.

I'm excited 1st time in 4 years. Been beat up ever since Harvey almost 5 years ago.

Loaded my basket up from golden gate orchids and carmelas..

All dendrobiums. I will start off with some cuthbertsonii, laevifolium and anosmum and see how I do..

I picked some beauties

Well I'll be darned! RJSquirrel is back in da house!

We were just talking about you a few months back in a thread Maxillaria rodrigueziana

With a follow-up in this one RJSquirrel method reimagined

And also now noting I was going to post pics of the two Maxillaria I was provoked into trying again (first thread). Sidetracked and spaced it. Gonna try to get those pictures up, but one is embarrassingly not doing well. The other is going gangbusters. Probably should get a couple of tips about the failing one to see what salvage I could do.

Great to have ya back!

Ahem... And no, you don't get beginner do-overs status. I call it a short sabbatical.

heh hard to forget a squirrel once he gets into ya garden

and you know exactly where Im going back to. the little jars...

Things have gotten so expensive to knock off with root rot.

Grow Rocks Good Bark Good Moss Good ness where has it all gone?

Good to see you guys again and experiment some with my bad growing habits.

One good thing about starting over is you know where you going this time.
