Phrag. Bessae watering requirements
Cool Phrag. Bessae watering requirements

Hi guys, the Foothills Orchid Society (Calgary, AB) is having its annual show this weekend & I picked up so many plants that I am literally overflowing. I am actively "culling" the herd in the next few weeks.

Anyway, question re: practice of placing Phrag Bessae in a shallow bowl with water. I spoke with a fellow selling Equgeneris plants & asked specifcally about this since I managed to get a Phrag Bessae (bare root). He said its really not necessary to keep the plant in a bowl of water if you can water every day or two.

Any comments from Phrag lovers about this? Also, I keep reading about Phrags liking low/medium lights which I interpret as being next to an east/north east window with 2 T5 tubes & 2 full spectrum flourescents. Is that okay or have I gotten in over my head?

Its become quite clear that I have to get a bigger grow stand so its on list list for next year.

regards, m
