Big Orchid = Mature Orchid?

[dianecty]

Hi everyone! I have several dendrobiums that have grown so rapidly from say 3 1/2" tall to 9" tall in 2 months! They are so fat and are growing many roots.

This is my question. Does it mean that since they are big that they are more mature and are closer to having blooms or are they just big?

You know what I mean? It is just like when we were in grade school - some students are really big and tall and some are normal size and some are small - but they are the same age. It doesn't mean that the bigger kids are more mature than the smaller kids right? My question is hard to explain.

Thanks!!
