Fertilizing in s/h culture
Just looking for some basic info as my online research is resulting in information overload. Ive been learning the importance of feeding to each specific plants needs, but looking for a baseline to start out with. I've recently changed 7 various orchids to s/h. Here is what I have: RO water, kelpmax, quantum-orchid probiotics, better gro 20-14-13. All orchids recently changed to s/h (within the last 7 days) are in a bright, shaded SE corner of my house, and are on a heated mat. Will hopefully have some proper plastic to help w humidity temporarily tomorrow.
I do not have any sort of tds or ph tester. Should I invest, if so, buy online or big box store?. Do you have the same, or similar fertilizer products? If so, what is your feeding regimen/strength? When you do the "clean flush", do you tip the pot slightly to try and drain the reservoir before flushing?
Thank you in advance for any feedback, much appreciated!
