Outside for the summer??
Default

I agree 100% my house and my orchids and my habits are not the same as yours or anyone else. But I have found it's really nice to have others experiences to learn from so I can adjust if things don't look happy. Or so I can go "wow! The internet said that was low light... thank you!"

My first question so far has been "how dry does it want to get? Should I mount it?" The way I see it I can always move it to a different light location, it's hard to treat root rot. I've done LOTS of reading on roots, and because of that all but that one phal I didn't repot have nice healthy roots and are getting lots of air. I'd rather water twice a day than have the medium stay wet for a week. I check my roots every day for signs of stress. And of course to see how much the new roots grew overnight. ROFL
I appreciate all the feedback and suggestions. Any more is always welcome.
