s/h culture stands for semi-hydroponics culture.

Semi-Hydroponic. Check out Rays site, Welcome to First Rays Orchids He has alot of free info and products available. I just ordered a starter kit and a light meter. Now I just need to decide what plants to try. Not sure I want to mess with the Haraella just yet either.

Thank you Camille thats great I will spray her once to twice a day dependant on how dry the moss gets. Hubby was willing to build me a cabinet if needed but we should be ok as it is.

Why discourage his interest in your orchids? If hubby wants to build a cabinet, by all means, let him do it! ![Big Grin](http://www.orchidboard.com/community/images/smilies/new/biggrin2.gif) I's love to have someone volunteer to build me something. And even if it isn't completely necessary (as it seems to me for now) for Haraella to have a high humidity atmosphere, it'll like it even better there, and you can buy more orchids for it!

I am afraid to put it in SH...I feel like in my environment, it'll dry out too quickly. For some reason, my stuff in SH dries in about 3 days!! Has anyone every tried the Haraella in SH? I'd hate for someone to have to sacrifice their new plant...

![ROFL](http://www.orchidboard.com/community/images/smilies/rofl3.gif) it would be a perspex box more than a cabinet but I will see how it goesI have fast ran out of room I am not sure where i would put a box/cabinet. I still keep hoping he will hand over his 4ft fish tank to orchid growing ![Evil](http://www.orchidboard.com/community/images/smilies/new/evil.gif)

Wow your 'chids in s/h dry out super fast! Is that considered normal? The few that I have in s/h dry out in about 5 to 7 days, depending on the container size. What size containers are you using? What are your temps and humidity?

I'm late for the party but I hope I'm not too late. I just ordered the Haraella from Oak Hill so, I should be up to speed with everyone by mid week. I got a little sidetracked...hope I can still play with you all!
P.S. I also ordered the Bulbo frostii...another one I just crossed off my wish list. ![Big Grin](http://www.orchidboard.com/community/images/smilies/new/biggrin2.gif)
