Hello all. I thought I'd share an idea I recently had. I've started growing types of orchids that I never had before. I wanted an easy way to reference their individual culture without having to flip through my reference books or the internet (I'm over 40 so I can't remember everything so well as I used to
).
I used excel, but you could use whatever program you like. I printed on heavy cardstock, and 1/2 size letter paper. I've included points that are important for me:
water, light, temp, potting, flowering, special requirements, notes. I use pictures of my own orchids for reference. Then you just hole punch and connect with book rings. You can add or revise pages easily whenever you want. It's working really well for me. Maybe it would be helpful to other growers. Eileen
