First of all, I want to thank all the active members, it is so generous that you respond and share your experiences.
My name is
Sade, I live in Mallorca, Spain and I have been growing orchids for almost 1 year, but my Mom is a long time grower with lots of experience in her way.
Trying to explore new methods, at first, it seemed that there was a lot of information and many videos on YouTube but then you realize that each case is different and many points of view that you do not stop learning with your trial and error N = 1 of what you are reading and learning.
Currently, I have many doubts but also my own experience and I will try to share them and see if you help me improve them or I can help others.
My collection is small (50 plants between adults and flanks), of Phalaenopsis, Cattleyas, Onc., my medium of preference is Barck ships (15mm), my climate is Mediterranean seasonal, it does not drop below 45° in the day with 35-40% humidity and In Summer it does not rise above 96° with 80% humidity, currently, all my plants are indoors, in different rooms with 60 to 70% ° fluctuating with -10-15° degrees of difference between room and relative humidity 50, I can hardly reach more than 65% humidity.
I want to continue, I am passionate about orchids and I think I have found the hobby of my life.
Happy new year
