Cymbidiums not producing spikes!
I bought two cymbidiums from Sam's Club 4 -5 years ago. After the blooms fell off, I repotted them. The plants seem to be doing well, but I have had no blooms. I read somewhere that you need to bury the bottom half of the pot in dirt. Never wanted to do that. I leave them in the shade of a tree in the spring, and bring them in before the first frost advisory in the fall. The last two winters I put them in the basement, where they get natural light, and also because it's cooler there. I hoped this would help. Last week I repotted them, and now they stay indoors. The temp inside is always around 73-75F. At this point, I am so frustrated, at the end of my tether! And, I have always been the patient kind. Can anybody throw some light as to what I may be doing wrong? recoils really use some advise from members who have had no problem getting their cymbidiums to bloom.
Thanks!
