So this guy decided he did not want much of a winter rest. . He fell asleep late November I think; and now its got roots all over and a growth of over 3 inches.
Do these plants sometimes skip winter rest? Or could it just be this plants cycle is off kilter? It's a happy and healthy plant I was just trying to figure out why it's the end of January and its acting like its spring!
Yeah! I asked some of the more seasoned growers if it would work for helping with air flow in the media and from keeping it from impacting together. I made sure and cut off the portion on the wine cork that had the wine stains on it and used the upper portion. It seems REALLY happy with them. I had been hoarding wine corks for a pinterest project.....I gave up on that I could not drink that much wine in my lifetime if I tried! lol.
Well, I don't see any reason for it not to work, so why not, right? I wonder if that has anything to do with it waking up early.
IDK my cycnode is in the exact same spot getting the same amount of heat and light from my desert tortoises tank and has been asleep for months and STILL has only about a 2 inch growth. I wonder if the bigger cane has anything to do with it. It has this huge growth and is barely shriveled...
Wine corks....interesting... I think I have just found my excuse to drink more wine. It acts as great filler for orchid media and my reasons to buy more wine is justified....I want to thank you kindrag23! My monn. Millenium witchcraft magic just started to wake up and it's bare root right now so when I pot it up I will have me some corks available 😜
