Update: So it turns out the reason the keikis were doing so awfully was because this plant has a horrible infestation of spider mites that I somehow didn't notice. I noticed when a few of the keikis...

Catasetum saccatum made a ridiculous number of keikis

It has only 5 pseudobulbs and yet it developed 6 keikis over the growing season. It's only now growing a new regular pseudobulb. Not sure what to do about this. I'm afraid it'll suck too much energy...

I wouldn't call it arrogance. Whole genome sequencing takes a while and is really expensive, which is why researchers typically just select one or a few DNA regions to sequence.

Sounds good, I'll do that.

Also could root rot cause this? I don't know if I have any but I repotted into a bigger pot not too long ago so I wouldn't be surprised if there was some level of root...

Does anyone here grow their orchids with ants?

Brassia new growth yellowing

Sections of the leaves of this most recent round of new growth is turning yellow before its even finished developing. I haven't had this issue with this plant before. Could this be fertilizer burn?

Your favourite Bulbophyllums

I don't grow Bulbos myself, but I'd like to hear your favourite(s). Maybe a bit hard to choose with 2000+ species in the genus, but that diversity is why I made this post.

Thanks guys. I guess I'll stick to my usual bark-sphagnum mix for now. Maybe I'll try what Katie did sometime in the future, when my Louisendorf gets large enough to make a division.
