I know this thread is a couple months old, but you asked for photos, so here's mine.

Cattleya Rth Exotic Aurora

I hesitated to post these photos, as the flower is damaged, but it's actually the first orchid I've gotten to bloom - Maybe this should really be in the "Beginner" section ?

Anyway, the plant is...

I keep all my potting stuff in a big plastic bin, with a snap-lock cover, that I keep on a covered front deck.
It's remained dry and pest free, so far - For Florida, that's pretty good.

I had to go to Lowes in Panama City yesterday, and of course stopped to check out the orchids ;)

I'm an absolute beginner here, and have no experience with this vendor, but that coco fiber he uses in his re-potting video is really weird.
I guess it must work, as he's growing them in it.

Thanks for the well reasoned reply.

That's the thing, I guess - The mfg says the lumen output is the same for both colors @ 24W per light.
They'll be in a living space which we'll use part of the time they're on, and we'll have to...

Which Spectrum ?

I'm trying to think ahead to next winter, when I bring my orchids in.
In NW Florida, the nights can drop below 60º from sometime in Oct, until Apr (it varies), so the plants are inside during the...

Tolumnia Spike?

I've had this tiny Tolumnia growing in a terrarium, maybe for a year or so.
It's put out a few new leaves over time, but otherwise not very impressive, and I was considering moving it.

BUT, a...

Phal. soft rot?

Hi
New here, and my first post - I just wish it didn't need to be in this sub-forum.
I live in NW Florida, and our house is not centrally heated, so some nights it gets around to 60º by morning.
