Growing orchids from seed is a very interesting process but it does take a very patient person to see it through from beginning to end.
Sowing in sterile media can be a little tricky. If you can get past that part, you need to leave your flasks in timed artificial light for up to 24 months while the seedlings mature.
After that you need to deflask... you'll want to be proficient with this part as it can quickly lead to your 24 months of waiting going down the drain.
I would suggest you buy yourself a flask of easy growing orchids first and have a go at deflasking. Flasking seed is not worth the time, effort or money if you don't get that part of it right.
