I created a windowsill Female
Default I created a windowsill

Technically, it's a shelf in a window, but it's close enough to be called a large windowsill. I made the shelf myself (my company makes architectural elements from a mineral composite material), and the only thing I regret is not putting a heating wire inside it. The entire top surface is a large shallow tray 20 mm deep, so spills do not end up on the floor. It holds about 40 orchids and 8 non-orchids, plus a vanda and 4 Stanhopeas hanging from the window trim.

The last photo is my ICU section, with rootless rescues and new transplants, all in semi-hydro, on a small heat mat. Seems to work - most are growing new roots, or at least not dying.
