It would be helpful for us beginners if a glossary of abbreviations was available. For instance I went to a chat room for the definition of s/h as pertains to orchids. Anywhere else I have encountered this term refers to shipping and handling. Just a suggestion, but it sure would help a novice get up to speed.
we just added that term to the glossary because of your post, it wasn't there for you to find before. if there's any other terms you'd like to see defined, feel free to ask, and we'll add it to the glossary.
This board is the best thing I have come across. As I read about s/h it sounds like the way to go. It seems to me most problems come from over watering, too much humidity, not enough air movement, etc. The article by "growinhydro" is great. As soon as I finish this 150 gal orchidarium I am building I will pursue this method. I will get these things to rebloom yet or kill them trying. Oh wait I already have done that to a few.
