Common problems picture library

[rbarata]

I'm not sure if this exists already but I think it would be really useful to have a sticky with pictures of the most common symptoms for the most common issues, for each genera.

For example, symptoms of watering issues, or light issues, etc. Each member could post their examples whenever they have a problem.
This would be useful, especially for beginners, allowing them to find answers without having to search in the forums.

What do you think?

I think that would be awesome! I try googling when I have an issue, but that doesn't always bring up clear pictures.

It's been done many times before. They are buried in various threads. You suggest, there might be a couple of inputs then this will also get buried, or even stickied but still forgotten.

I really can't imagine any orchid subject that hasn't been on here. The data (images, taxonomy, whatever) may not be exact but close enough to serve. It's just a matter of searching and searching for synonyms and searching alternate terms.

Here is good links on the topic:

Well, if the end result is to be buried and then forgotten... in this case it doesn't make sense to pursue this idea.

Carrie, thank you for the link.

Thanks Carrie.

Perfectly illustrates my point. That link is on the first sticky of the Pest and Disease forum.
