How is this different from an oncidium?

I've always liked the blooms on this one, but the size was a disappointment when I saw them in person. It isn't surprising that you would get a branching spike with sotoanum as a parent. I wouldn't expect much more than what you have, but you never know. More blooms can't hurt, right?

Nice blooms

8:48 Really shiny leafs on the hieroglyphica. 😳 9:23 The first schilleriana that I got last year is already in full bloom with 7 flowers. The only pests that I've encountered so far are one mealy bug, a snail, and fungus gnats. Each orchid I have has its own sticky trap and I also have an electric bug catcher in all rooms. 11:27 It's really nice to see the Kandyan Dancer again. It will be really fun to see it when it's in full bloom! 12:40 My two psychopsis that I repotted together in November has a new leaf with two more on the way and some roots that already travelled to the bottom of the pot! I took a gamble by getting it but its doing well for me. 15:44 I wonder when my Yellow Bird will bloom. I just got it during the summer though! 😅 17:45 Eventually I'm going to have the Sharry Baby, but I'll need the space first! 😅

So many infected plants I feel for you girl. At least some of the ones you got from me are still alive surprisingly.

I have several of the same orchids that you do and was especially interested in how they are doing for you. Your Prosthechea cochleata is so much taller than mine! I may have to move it to a different shelf eventually. It was a tiny 6“ tall rescue from a friend 1 1/2 years ago, but each new growth is double the size of the last and it blooms on each growth. Brassavola digbyana is such a struggle! I finally moved mine to a large basket with lava rock and medium bark. It hangs right under my spider farmer grow light and seems to like the intense light. The root growth is much, much better, but they all want to escape their home and go everywhere. I’m not sure if this is a good long-term solution or just a space hog. 😂

Looks great

Excellent video!! So much so that YT would not let my previous comment stand! 😡a video that calls out misinformation in the orchid hobby, points out bad actors and backs it up with proof... isn't it astounding, that YT would not allow a comment which is expressing gratitude and appreciation for a video like this, to be made public? Amazing! I shall try again and express my appreciation for your informative / warning video, once again... gladly! 😘 thank you for this video and for making it clear that cigarettes, no matter in which way shape or form do not belong anywhere near our orchids 👍🏼 and thank you so much for the shout out! I appreciate everything about you 😘 hope you are having a wonderful week. 💐 are waiting for you in your office 🫶🏼❤

that's even crazier than the idiots that put ice cubes on their orchids!!!!!

Could I have the address please?

nicotine is actually a very good pesticide, it was used pre-synthetic pesticides in the form of nicotine sulphate. The problem is that it was widely known as being extremely environmental toxic, especially to the person applying it. In modern times, it has been formulated into compounds called neonicotinoids which are systemic so less environmentally toxic but present in the pollen and so harmful to bees. Also so potent that predator insects that consume pests that have ingested neonics will also be killed. Now, you could use cigarettes to make a tea to use as a pesticide but you would have to deactivate the virus. The problem with TMV is that it has one of the highest known temperature-stable protein coats. In order to ensure the virus is destroyed, it has to be heated to 125 C (260 F) for ten minutes. To do that in a home, you would need a pressure cooker that can sustain 40 psi to cook the tea in. Simply not worth the risk.

Great video

I hate seeing this click bait videos having millions of likes and shares millions and millions comments that saying thank you. I will try this 🙈 And this videos as yours telling the truth but getting few comments and few like even hundreds of likes not enough!!! Thank you so sooo soo much doing reality videos and trying to wake up this amateur growers 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

Snake oil sellers, that's what these channel are. They don't care if they spread wrong information, they don't care about orchids either. All they care about is views and earn money from them 😢

Most of these channels you alluded to give out useless and sometimes deadly information for orchids. Every video is the next best thing from their pantry that will be the miraculous cureall for an orchid! This cigarette idea however is just a terrible way to kill probably all the orchids in a collection. All these channels want is the advertising revenue. What orchid growers should do is report the channels. If enough of us do this, hopefully UA-cam will take notice.

This crap is getting huge view numbers and all the comments (maybe AI?) say thank you so much...just how????

❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

I always find it amazing that zygo pseudobulbs come with these bits of decay which may become an issue / pose a threat. I mean, why? Snails, possibly... but still... they are so susceptible to any little damage. I am certain that, with your care and what you have already achieved with the zygos you have, its going to grow well. What a cutie! 😍 yes, I mean you but that seedling is as well 🥰😘

5:44 looks like a Stapelia species or some sort of relative, like Huernia, what did the flowers look like?

Hello from Brisbane and you have an amazing set up to grow these high humidity requiring orchids in dry boned Perth. Have subscribed to your channel

I just can't with that spike! 😅 amazing! I am so sorry about the thrips... madness, when you think that everything coming from a grocery store should be 100% 'ready to eat' without a threat of pests. wow! So so sorry 😢 love all your blooms, though 🥳 so excited to see what you do with the orchids once they get to go outside. One day at a time, though, you have been super busy 🥰 hope your day was fabYOUlous, amiga mia ❤

Those are some incredible spikes!!! Navigating through your grow room will be tricky but so worth the effort. Everything looks nice; it almost motivates me to organize my grow space. I’ll look forward to seeing your blooms!

Hey girl, they sure have been in the wars! I think you need some serious wind action in the room, just saying’. spacelatum, once they get goin’, no stopping ‘em. Hope you’re gonna be kicking yours heels up on New Year’s Eve. Have a good one, from wintery Thailand.

6:04 I got my first two Psychopsis in September and they were repotted together during the first week of November after new roots emerged on both. Both are doing well and have new leafs. One is already 5-6" long. I've been weighing it before and after watering and it has been gaining weight. I'm curious to see how it will continue to grow especially next year when it's warmer. It will be really fun to see both oncidiums in bloom especially the one with the 6ft spike! 😁

Very beautiful plants dear new friend 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

What a lovely plants 🪴 Like 4 My friend thank you for good sharing Have a great day

dang, I thought lots in Florida were small.

Hey girl! It looks bluddy great! Good on ya, Hapi looks happy in her new back yard. Have a good new year 🎉. Love from Thailand.

Hello, beautiful! 😍 this is so amazing! I just CAN NOT!! 🙌🏼🤸🏼‍♀🙌🏼 what a fantastic result and wow.... I would like to say I am speechless, but really I am not 😅 it is fabulous! I LOVE IT! The monumental task that has been in your face for so many years, is now over and you have created a beautiful space to hang out in and enjoy 👏🏼👏🏼 if my back wasn't shot to bits, I would take a bow. The spider webs 😜 and HAPI at the end there wagging her tail! J'adore ❤ what a wonderful and uplifting video 👏🏼👏🏼 congratulations! Love the 2 seater as well. You have a direct line to Santa 😘 enjoy the rest of your staycay... I mean... with all that beautiful space now? Fantastic 🥳🥳 hope your day is / was beautiful 🫶🏼❤

Baby Yoda 😍how darling is that! grow Baby Yoda, Grow!! 🥰 have a beautiful evening my friend 🫶🏼❤🌸

Bulbos are one group of orchids I just can't get into. There are only three species I can think of that I would even consider, but the blooms are all so small, I'm not inclined to grow them. (pretty much any orchid with tiny blooms I'm not having because I won't be able to see them)

Hey girl! That’s a grotty lookin’ specimen but you can work your magic on it. With those pieces of media, my routine is to cut with secatuers right through the middle of it avoiding any roots. Usually parts of it will break off leaving much smaller pieces. Works well for me, or let’s say it used to as I no longer use all that gear any more. It’s mounts and charcoal for me now. Good luck with it.

Lucky girl! The other plant is a Spathoglottis. Hmmn, watched a bit more and saw a closer view of the top of the plant, if not Spathoglottis it’s the Chinese ground orchid, Bletilla Striata. The leaves of both these plants are quite similar. Spathoglottis tend to have a lot of blooms on the inflorescence and when finished there are lots of nubbins where they have fallen off.

That ansellia is huuuugge! 😅 wow! I hope your scale clean up was satisfying and easy to do. Love this idea of ‘help me repot divide and you get a piece!’ That’s a great deal and incentive 👍🏼 thank you for the shout out! Either way, I hope you like what you see when your ground orchid blooms 🤞🏼 also, I hope you are having a beautiful summer’s day. Flipping cold here but some orchids need watering, regardless. Much love to you and Hapi ❤❤

where did you get that pump sprayer?

Now I wish I was an Aussie!😋

5:28 Really nice pattern for this Zygo. I really like Zygo flowers and I haven't tried to grow one yet. Maybe next year if there's space. 😅

And happy birthday

Lovely hall thx for sharing

Happy birthday Julie! Nice plants, not sure about the stinky one though😂😂😂

Happy belated Birthday Julie! What a lovely haul 😁 That Galeopetalum is awesome 🔥 Have a great weekend

Happy birthday

Old man's beard! I have not heard that term used for the spanish moss in a long time! I cannot even say where I heard it, that is how long ago it was. What fun to see how your mounts are doing. I am glad that the viewer asked for the video and hope that they see it. Wishing you a wonderful Thursday and know that 💐 are in your office for mañana ❤

I have a couple of indoor mounts and they are lucky if they get watered once a day and they are fine. The outdoor mounts are lucky if they get watered twice a week (in the dry season). So I wouldn't worry about them getting enough water when you are working.

So beautiful
