New to Semi Hydro - Orchid Board

Gilda · #1 02-17-2007, 05:05 PM

I have been converting some paphs & phals to semi hydro over the past couple of months...still too early to give a thumbs up on the paphs, except for a spicerianum which is doing jumping jacks after being SH. Most of the phals are showing new roots growth . Most were in bloom /bud and did not skip a beat !

I have enjoyed reading the posts in this topic. Thanks !

Good to hear Gilda. I experienced similar jumping jacks response with Paph. (Hsinying Web x charlesworthii) and Paph. Deena Nicol.

Are you using PrimeAgra or a different media?

mostly Hydroton..easier for me to get, and the new PA looks a lot like Hydroton.
A friend gave me some old PA ...I have used it for some paphs, my phals didn't like it for some reason , but they love Hydroton ??
