LOL... Welcome to the hoarders club!!!!! It's a wonderful club, and we have flowers!!!

It doesn't matter how much space you have. It's never enough!

[WhiteRabbit]

oops .... but I've been there, but on a smaller scale ...
If it's just a night or two of very low temps, just put them back out afterwards, and bring them in the next time. I stick mine in the garage for the days when overnight lows approach freezing. Any that are warmer growers I keep inside...

[Leafmite]

Autumn has always been a nightmare for me, too. I now must get rid of plants or orchids to fit new ones or stick to very small/mini orchids and plants that can remain in small pots.

[RJSquirrel]

ya you only know you got many orchids when you bring them all inside and go 'DAYUMMMM thats a lot of plants'

Its a sure sign your getting better though, might not need After Orchid therapy afterall

[trdyl]

Yep! They do add up quick. Just wait until you have to start dividing them.....

[isurus79]

You could always sell some of that band equipment to make room for the orchids and free up some cash for orchid lights! Muhuhahahahaha!!

[GardenTheater]

I see space for more. Hahaha.

Same here. This is the first summer that I had more than 100 orchids. When the weather got cold, I had my orchids in trays like that too! They sat there in the garage for a few days because I simply felt too lazy to move them to their proper locations. I also had to cut down my collection by a fair amount. At least now all my orchids fit on the windowsills and under lights.

Yet I cannot control myself and I have another package of orchids coming tomorrow. I see you're in the same boat..except you have three packages, not one!
