Welcome to the world of terrariums! If you find you have a little too many ghosties to handle - i'd be more than happy to buy your excess - as my spring project is working on a 75- gallon terrarium with the main focus of ghost orchids and micro-miniatures. Here a couple of crappy i-phone shots of my current exo-terra housing my ghosts as they grow up along with a couple other mini-orchids:
-> I will update this post with higher quality pictures once I decide to go bust out the good camera ...
The stock list includes:
Lepanthes calodictyon
Lepanthes telipogoniflora
Dracula lotax
Porroglossum teagui
Masdevallia horrida
Chiloschista sp.
Chiloschista sp.
Polyrrhiza lindenii
Polyrrhiza sallei
The key to growing ghosts is high humidity. I keep my tank at 70% and a temp of 70-80 degrees. I have a fogger system set up that runs every morning and evening - in conjunction with the occasional
misting throughout the day.
