Hi from central california! Female
Red face Hi from central california!

I picked up my first phal on valentine's day, where they were on sale at a local drug store. V-day is long gone but I'm in love! I now have a total of 5 phals (sorry no pics at the moment, but will show you soon). I picked up the other four today from a local orchid distributor. I haven't had any problems thus far, I have been reading about the plants religiously. The flowers dropped one by one from my first phal, no buds left, I can only figure it must have been their time to go. I have no clue when it began to flower, but it was with me a good six weeks before they dropped. My noobie question is this: what is a good fertilizer? I have Terracycle 20-20-20 for orchids, and have been following the bottle's directions. I mist the leaves and flower spikes daily, humidity stays around 60% around the phals (digital hygrometer). Any other tips would be fabulous! Thanks!
