Welcome Shakkai to THE BOARD!
There are other members from Europe as well; maybe some day you could all have your own Chat since you are several hours ahead of us in North America.
Cool growers are the commonly grown orchids in Europe. Here is a image link to a sheet on Nano viv for cool growing orchids created by a young man in Sweden


Also here is a link to some very excellent terrarium/vivariums pages

Maybe you might find them of interest.

Wow, Thanks everyone! It sure is great to be amongst such friendly (and knowledgeable) people.

I think that Masdies will probably stay first and foremost in my heart. But I also love the variety that the others add. I can't wait to see my newest baby Restrepia flower.

I will be slowly but surely putting together a terrarium (yes, I saw the advice here on the Ter/Viv forum) and will post photos there as I progress.

Thanks again for such a warm welcome. I really look forward to learning as much as I can and I'm sure with the help of this group I will have some nice results to show off.

Cheers!
