I won't spend time watching the video, but yes, Miss Orchid Girl can be a controversial subject depending on who you speak to.

If you want to watch YouTube regarding catasetum, watch Fred Clark or Stephen Van Kampen-Lewis (username here is Isurus79).

One of the key differences in figuring out who to watch and who is just being a YouTuber seeking advertising is the individual speaking will usually have a caveat of "depending on your conditions" instead of a blanket "this is how it works." Not those exact words, but you should get my drift.

Miss Orchid Girl was a member for awhile here when she first started growing orchids, but didn't stick around very long. Can't remember her user name.

Yes, I've watched Stephen and Fred's videos many times over, which is why I found MOG's post really perplexing. She knows there are these resources out there, Stephen's channel was pointed out to her by a commenter, and yet she never bothered to take the advice given and decided to go off on her own theories. She also talks incessantly about cyanobacteria, and it's just algae that she is referring to that is mostly harmless.

There's not only a lot of drama but also self righteousness on YouTube that can be really off putting. I don't really know why I watch her, mostly to see her collection I guess. It's too bad she isn't interested in being here, she could learn a thing or two.
