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! 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...

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

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.
