Talking Hello :P

hmmm its my first time here as well not really though have been trying to look for some nice websites with useful infos on orchids! - i just want more! lol! anyway Hi MSM regarding to your orchids mind if i know which place in the philippines u residing? (where are your orchids placed? do they get morning sun starting what time and ends as well? what time and how often do you water your orchids? what medium of orchids do you use?) well usually orchids usually died because of overwater i've learned my lesson tsk tsk tsk!
well MSM try taking a photos and post it here we might be able to diagnose it. although am not good in bacteria or fungi! LOL! im still trying to crack mine yet! LOL!
God im such an addict to orchids! i hate it when im getting addicted over something!
i have question? do you guys still fertilize if your orchids are in blooms?

* try research i have like kazillion sites about orchids and honestly i get frustrated too because diffrent care. well just trust ur instinct or better ask your neighbor or good ol pal whos into orchids on how he takes care of it! mine! everyday 1 gallon of water and a pinch a high nitrogeno or 20-20-20 fertilizer. and twice a week i use hormex 15 drops in a gallon of water or more! the more roots the better food intake- from my experience. good luck i hope u wont get addicted as i am! lol!

Vandas can tolerate morning till afternoon the rest i think morning sun is enough! around 8-1pm. if you could get rain water its the best option, or try dechlorinating your tap water like letting the water stand for at least 24 hrs. and try fertilizeing weakly i dont know how regular you're using but make it a habit. ENJOY! hay kaka - addict! *JIMJIM ang ganda ng orchid inggit ako!

sus maria jim! sayo na lng yung pigeon na yan! actually the downside of this flower is... yeah its pretty and i think one of best scent ive had.. un nga lng it only last for a day! sigh! so mega picture pag nagkabloom! yeah... if u cant find it in davao pag punta mo manila ill give yah one! dami ako nyan! actually its hard to make it bloom coz it needs heavy rain downpour plus low temp. ata! im not so sure... my fertilizers cant help it bloom! i just bought a macrophyllum kaso lng bata pa! walang spectabile na mahanap!
