Hello everyone! I'm very happy to have found your forum and hope to learn a lot here. I've been growing orchids in hot and sunny south Florida for a year now and sometimes I struggle finding the right answers online. Im a newbie of course! I have a collection of about 20 orchids, and they are all "rescues" from the 50%off shelves at the convenience store when they had lost all their flowers or have other peoblems, and it is a great satisfaction to bring them back to life, not always an easy task. I grow them in terracotta pots, many in trees, and most recently in "full water culture". Most of my orchids are phals, vandals, and cattleyas. I have tried other varieties but have not been successful so far. Anyway, hope to chat with many of you and will be posting very soon. Thank you.
