Mokara Chark Kuan[gold] on S/H
This orchid loves direct sunlight and dont burn at all... drinks a lot and feeds a lot. Its on its third bloom this year. Lately I noticed its not happy in its redwood basket anymore, its getting dry and only gave me 5 blooms from the 9 buds it started with. I did a quick research on S/H method and thought it might work just as long as the roots dont touch water for they are not meant to do that... constant moistening this summer is a must for this plant...now it gets flushed once a week in the sink and the water is added with a mix of worm tea and seaweed(1 capful to 1 gallon)
After a week on S/H the Mokara is very happy, it perked up its flowers and its just thriving on its new environment.
I am new to S/H...I value any advice as to what I am doing right or wrong.
