Update from a newbie. Thanks everyone

[jasonmom]

First let me say thank you to everyone here who has helped me. I doubt my orchids would be alive without you all.

I first bought 4 rescue seedling Cattleya (1-21-14). Didn't know caring for orchids was so different than my other plants. None had roots to speak of and I pretty much expected them to die. Thanks to all of you they have been repotted and two are showing new growth. I think I can see some roots, but that might be wishful thinking. The one that seamed to be dry is looking better.

Sense then I bought two rescue Phals. One I'm not NoID that I'm unsure why it was marked down to $5 as it still has blooms and a spike is growing now. The other phal was also $5 and it's done blooming, but it has the best roots of any I've got by far.

So, from someone who expected to fail, Thanks to all of you who have helped me succeed.
