Pollenating? I never done that, but would like to give it a try, ain't that how you get cross strains? by pollenating 2 different plants?

3 drops per gallon of water and use that to water around the base.

Actually, I just ran across this on another thread:
Root Rot Recovery
The 3 drops per gallon isn't enough for your phal. That is more of a maintaining dose. Ray recommends 1 teaspoon of SuperThrive per gallon. Hope this helps, Ray sure does know his stuff!

Hahaha, I bet that was from me. It seems like I share a link to Ray's site every other day- he's just that good!
GREAT site for newbies with oodles of questions.
