Leaving my orchids unattended... help!
Hello!
Unfortunately in about two weeks i'm going on vacation and have no one to take care of my orchids while i'm gone. I'm going to be gone for about a week and am worried about them because of the summer heat.
I have 8 orchids; 4 Phalaenopsis, an oncidium, and 3 dendrobiums. I keep them in two different windows of my apartment which they seem to get the perfect amount of sun. During the summer i have been watering them about once every 4-5 days depending on the weather. I also have rock trays underneath them that I usually keep filled with water to keep the humidity up for them. They usually dry out almost every other day.
Any ideas for me how I can keep my plants moist and happy while i'm gone?
Thanks!!!
