My set-up, introductions, and new growth! Female
Default My set-up, introductions, and new growth!

Hi everyone!
I just joined this forum a few weeks ago, and I thought it was probably time to introduce myself and my tiny orchid collection. I'm currently a grad student studying clinical psychology in Dayton, OH, and was bitten by the orchid bug last year. My growing space is, unfortunately, not as good for them as I'd like it to be, but hopefully I can change that in the near future.

They are currently in my bedroom, which only has a single, north-facing window, and I haven't been able to purchase a grow-light just yet. The humidity is also fairly low, so I try to keep the mixes moist. There is plenty of good air-flow, though!

Without further ado, here are my 'chids.

The first pic is just my little set-up. They are sitting on my dresser, with a home-made humidity tray.

In the red pot is my NOID phal from Lowes. It has very pretty magenta flowers when it blooms. Look at its new leaf!

The onc. is my Twinkle "Pink Profusion." I just got that one about a month ago. I think it's still acclimating to my house, but it has some nice new leaf growth.

In the copper pot is my DTPS. Kenneth Schubert "Blue Star" x Dor. pulcherrima "blue." I got this one from Hausermann's Orchids. I can't wait until it blooms! The smallest leaf has grown in since I bought it.

Finally, my Hwra. Lava Burst "Puanani," which my mom bought for me at the orchid show at the Krohn Conservatory in Cincinnati. It was in pretty bad shape when I got it, as you can see by the totally flat and wrinkled pseudobulbs. But, I put a plastic bag over it to raise the humidity, and look! I have a new nubbin! I'm so excited about that

Thanks, guys! Happy growing!
