What should I do?

Hello! I got a Dendrobium Aggregatum and its truly a beautiful plant!!! But its growing. It has a few new growths starting But from my research this is a time for the plant to be resting, no fert and reduction of water only enough to keep the p-bulbs from over shriveling.

So im just a little unsure of how to proceed. should I keep watering and fertilizing regularly until the growths mature?

Or should I just proceed with the rest treatment?

Im new to this plant and i did my research but this has thrown me for a loop lol i wanna see those golden jewels in the spring!!! So what should I do?

I'm not sure what you should do, my aggreatum didn't do any thing all summer, then last month it started to grow like a weed, I'm going to let it do its thing and see what happens. I hope I'm doing the right thing by watering and feeding it, I just think it doesn't know it should be resting now.

I know the feeling! My instinct is to continue normal care if it's growing ...

Hopefully some more knowledgeable members will chime in!

I watered it today but did not fertilize just be safe until more people chime in. its growing so i know it needs water im just hoping that this does not trigger even more growth! I'm also hoping that these are just some last minute growths it threw out, there are about 5 of them

I worried because back when i bought it it was listed as blooming but when i ordered it they told me it was no longer blooming. i thought to myself that was little out of season..... and then it would begin growing again since it finished blooming but my plant shows no sign of having bloomed at all!

So now im really confused as to why on earth its growing

Treat it like its a normal growing season and then withhold all water once the growths are done.

That is what I would recommend, too. Good luck!
