Growing Psychopsis in semihydroponics

[Katznk9s]

Has anyone successfully grown a Psychopsis in S.H.? Please advise.

Many thanks....

I have all my Psychopsis in S/H. The first one I put into S/H October 2008. All the plants I got after that (10 in all) went into S/H, they seem to love it, and all keep producing blooms. A couple of them need repotting because the pots are so full of roots. They are care free and only need watering about every 2 days. Possibly they could go longer than 2 days but that is my schedule. I will post a pic of them tomorrow.

Kat, I would suggest not to move all your plants at once into S/H. Especially not if you have not tried it before!

the most important thing you need to keep in mind is "move plants to S/H ONLYwhen they are in active grow and are producing new roots". Otherwise you risk to loose your plants, and this can happen very VERY quick in S/H!
