Hello from Toronto - Orchid Board

I've been growing orchids on and off for about six years now, and I guess the bug has finally caught. My collection has grown to about 40 plants in the last year and a half. Currently I've got 14 Angs, 10 Dens, with the remainder spread over other various genra. My most recent purchase is a Vanilla which I'm still trying to figure out how to get to bloom size in my small 800sq foot condo. Not all purchases are well thought out in advance I guess

For the last year I've been growing exclusively under t5 lights, but will be moving shortly into a place with some great southwest exposure. Hopefully I'll be able to cut back on my electricity bill.

After lurking around here every time I had a problem I figured it was time to join. Looking forward to some great discussions.

Welcome aboard, Tyler. Don't worry about 'well thought out' purchases. Once the bug has bitten, you've lost control of the thought process. Have fun.
