I replated the seedlings and lost most of them in two days due to contamination. I placed the seedlings before replating them into peroxide letting them sit in the solution for about 10 minutes swishing them around. The I replated. I had to remove the seedlings right away. I have about 5 left out of 12 that are now in a community pot. They are the tiny ones that made it. I was so surprised.

That is good that some of them made it! My seedlings that I had de-flasked are getting quite big. They are growing much faster than the Cattleya seedlings we got from Carmela's last year.

Halee, How are the seedlings doing you deflasked? I am down to one now as the contamination just wiped them out. Hope to see pictures of them soon as well as the others from Carmela's.
