Orchidarium almost ready! Thoughts please! Female
Exclamation Hopefully, final stages with Pain in the neck(orchidarium)

Well i bought the 24" t5 H.O. twin tubes , called Nova Extreme. Tonight i repotted my mini dend, and others. Cut the 2 dowels to place under the plexiglass, that i still need t cut. got a max/min thermometer and humidity. Bought a fan, but its about 4 " tall as wide. couldn't find any appropriate ones, the ones for the computer, stores would tell me they wouldn't be good, because of the wiring that comes along with it. The fan i bought is 3volts. 2 speeds, fast, slow. I still need to buy some plastic type trays to put under orchids that are in pots. Right now i have the brassovola hanging inside. The masd is tied amongst live moss and on a piece of driftwood, on the bottom of the aquarium. I have since put the plexiglass half over the top of aquarium for circulation right now. Due to the fact that i noticed some tips of the masd, on some of the leaves are turning white. i think that is because of the fluorescent tubing, that i am using for the phals. As i mentioned before, I will be using one side of my fluorescent tube lite stand for the phals, and phaphs. the other 1/2 of the stand which will still be under the lights will be my orchidarium. The top of the orchidarium will be covered with the Plant lights i bought. Hope this all sounds good! If not, hope someone will give me some other ideas Getting late and need to be up extra early, so i will say Goodnight to everyone till next time . Before i go will try one more time to post my new phaph, that i really coldn't afford, but just had to have If it works great, if it doesn't show up, i will try gain another day
