Den. cuthbertsonii in SH?
After a recent visit to Golden Gate Orchids in San Francisco, I find myself with two darling little Dendrobium cuthbertsonii. In the green house they were quite cool and damp, I assume pretty much all the time.
I grow in my apartment and I don't keep it that low or that damp. I've had some success with masdevallias and a pleurothais by moving them to ventilated clay pots with leca and keeping them in a saucer. I also have a fan that blows over them keeping them cooler from the evaporation.
The water where I live has very low TDS and I give them a good flush in the sink every week or two. Otherwise just fill up the saucers and let them go.
I was thinking of removing the new ones from their mounts and putting them into the same situation.
Good idea or no?
Anybody else tried this?
