Dendros just sulking

[Snowden]

First of all, I'd like to say hello to everyone. I've been lurking for quite sometime and felt moved to jump into this discussion.

I'd have to agree with Ray. There are too many other factors to be considered other than your watering and fertilizing habits. What is your growing environment? What kind of light are they getting? What about temps?

I transferred an Emma White to S/H about 2 months ago. It had a small new growth at the time. It sat there not doing much until a week ago and is now growing nicely. I also transferred about 10 phal-type noid dendro keikis about a month ago and, last weekend, moved them to a new container (the one they were in was a bit too shallow). All are showing signs of good root growth.

They are currently being grown outdoors where they get 3 or more hours of direct early morning light and dappled light the remainder of the day. They are watered every other day (everyday when the temps are over 85), and fertilized with a weak balanced solution 2-3 times a week.

I had been researching S/H for about a year before finally making the leap this spring where I moved 37 (not including divisions) of my plants over. So far, I'm very pleased with the results. Only two are not growing, but they were in bad shape to begin with
