Awesome results on Phal. Sogo Gotris

Now, Ive had this orchid since May 11th of last year and have used Kelpak the whole time with it. I received it in bloom as it just had one flower open. Since then, its put out two full leaves and starting on a third. Reason Im posting is that I just noticed a spike as well! I figured it wouldnt bloom this year as its only been about 6 months since it stopped. I was very surprised to see it!

As you can see the new leaf forming, 6 new roots tips and the spike. I'd say its one happy little phal!




Right when I got it:

Congratulations on the new spike. Your phalaenopsis looks very healthy and well cared for.

do you use Kelpak as well as regular fertilizer or just kelpak? looks like the plant is very happy.

Well done! Love the roots on this one. Looks quite healthy. Thanks for sharing.

I use a 10-10-10 urea free fert as well. I apply both every other week alternating if that makes sense to you guys.

Your going to have root spaghetti if your not careful. Not that its a bad thing. Good growing.

Also, if you don't think that kelpak doesn't change the size of the roots look to the second picture. The root in the middle emerged right before I got the plant. The two on the outside are the new ones. Huge difference.

It is a nice little plants. It will grow and grow and make basal keikis, imagine how many colorful little fragrant flowers you will have in a few years!
