Cattleya is pollinated. Should I bother doing anything?
My amazing wife found this HuGE Catt. In a pot with other plants in a neighbors garbage pile. She knows I want all pots and plants so she grabs me what she can( keeper!
Anyway, this happened to have a specimen cattleya in it (score) and on of the pseudobulbs is swollen up like a golf ball and I assume it is a pollinated sac.
I will post a pic when I have enough posts to earn the right
I know it is damn impossible for anything to happen if I leave it alone as I lack the fungus and skills to make the miracle happen....what is entailed, in cost and effort, to harvesting and sending seeds to a lab? Is is worthless if it is a NoID? I know the fungus is super specific to each species...
Anyone have any experience?

Oh I forgot to mention that I have no experience with deflasking either....
Sounding like I am a poor candidate... but you have to get experience somewhere lol
