I couldn't agree more

Sorry to be off topic but does someone know a method to get back into an Instagram account?
I somehow lost my password. I appreciate any tips you can give me!

[@bajillianaire]

I was gifted a phalaenopsis for my birthday last month by my employers and one of them told me she'd long given up trying to care for them; they always died!
I'd never had any house plants before and never even considered getting one, so the thought of trying to keep this orchid alive was intimidating. This channel has made orchid care feel so simple for even the worst plant owners like myself; I went from total fear of this one orchid dying to feeling like I could turn this into an actual hobby and have a whole bunch of plants! You're great and I appreciate you!!

[@barbaramorgan862]

I have five orchids one I have had for 5yearsi am enjoying taking care of plants I enjoy your videos on orchid care

[@jenniferallen4420]

How's your orchid doing now?

[@j.d.8075]

fertilizerss going down either the sewer of rainwater system can lead to environmental contamination... used fertilizer is best used on other plants or grass, where the chances of anything spreading is much reduced. Fertilisers have been held responsible for massive algae blooms on corals reefs. Just putting it out there as part of the larger discussion on how to be responsible with our hobby.

[@o_o8203]

Usually it's not a problem if it's going down the drain because it goes through treatment centers. Runoff from farms into bodies of water is, by far, the main contributor to fertilizer pollution. However, you make a good point when it comes to orchids that are kept outside, as the runoff may not end up in a treatment center 👍🏽

[@oirudleahcim]

@@o_o8203 I take the "leftover" fertilizer and use it on some other outdoor plants. Hasn't hurt any of them yet!

[@Beansie]

@@o_o8203 In treatment centers a specific chemical has to be targeted. This is why we see bodies of water that contain wild fish that have antibiotics, caffeine and other chemicals in their systems (from people peeing while on meds, flushing pills, dumping coffee/soda into drain, etc.). Treatment plants don't target these things, therefore they are not sorted out.

[@rtec6106]

Try the organic fertlizers then. That's what I'll do

[@Beansie]

@@rtec6106 Welp, I guess you don't get more organic than worm poo. Been using worm castings for years on everything else, may as well give it a go.

[@AydenDevonny]

Dani!! I've been such a long time viewer of your channel. I let my entire collection die a couple of years ago due to depression and vowed to never touch the hobby again, but one of you videos popped up on my feed and I watched to see what you've been getting up to recently and I got the bug again. I'll probably keep a small collection this time but thank you for continuing to make content around this amazing hobby. You're truly on of the best!!

[@Twins0302]

Hi Guys, today I came back from a 4 day trip...I'm a beginner, so my neighbor gave me her dead phalen. plant several weeks ago. So I had no clue how to care for it, so I came here and watched a bunch of MissOrchidGirl videos. I repotted, took off all dead roots, cut off a dead shoot, left the yellow leaf alone and changed the medium and watered the plant..So today upon my return I found the orchid plant had bloomed 2 buds. I am so thrilled to see the blooms. So I will give it a hand at rescuing what appear to be dead plants. I have her outside on a ledge where she get very little morning sun, and is shaded the remainder of the day. I didn't even fertilize her...but need to check this video. That yellow top leaf just dried off by itself and fell off...

[@mmilby]

Thank you for all your videos. I love Orchids and learning how to take care of them has been a goal of mine. Such a pretty flower and really cool plant! Thanks again!

[@turtlecat7856]

I used my orchid fertilizer in cilantro garlic and peppermint. You will not believe! The leaves are greener than ever and growing a lot.

How do you mix fertilizer with cilantro, garlic and peppermint ?

First I want to say you’ve turned me into a orchid lover I always want to grow plants but never have the information I need to keep them healthy you show me everything to make me super comfortable also I love how orchids really do tell you want they need! So I do have one question, if I end up needed to water my orchid more often then a week like every 2-3 days should I wait to fertilize until week point or still do it with every watering? Thanks so much for everything

[@dawnspriggs5492]

Really liking your videos, received an orchid for my birthday, and though I have some knowledge on plants, know nothing about orchids, happy to say my plant is still doing well at 3 months thanks to your information. Thank you

[@itsmeandorchid7302]

I use the leftover fertilizer to my other house plants. So i guess its much more economical and clever usage.

[@bobbiechinn9578]

If the orchid has any issues then it will spread to the plants u give that to. Like molds, pests, any bacteria etc.

[@LS-pj3dg]

Aghhh I have to know the name of the pinkish purple orchids you have in this video! I must have them

[@yufang66]

Can you fertilize the orchids immediately after you have repotted them? If not, how long should you wait?

[@Jack-zj1ug]

Guess we won’t get an answer :(

[@orchidsrosesg_disone4431]

I have the slow release ones and I think it helped bring out newer flowers to be, I have never gotten orchids to bloom again!

[@TomCrosman]

Just repotted our Phalaenopis after the blooms finished about a week ago (9-7). Today I fertilized it for the first time ever. (Was a gift in May and was in bloom then). I used 1/2 the strength recommended in the instructions just to be sure. Cut the cane when repotted to the first bud.
Hope to see it start growth soon. Thanks for the info and links to repotme. Used their mix and pot. Very pleased.

[@ocean_kin1922]

Thank you so much for making these videos! I bought an orchid a few months ago, I didn’t know you needed special orchid soil for it and I repotted it when I got it into peat moss, I’m buying some fertilizers and special soil for it and I hope I’m not too late in saving it!

[@rowand2263]

Hi Danny. Great series! Although I know about how to fertilize but I've had a few friends who have phals and just getting into the hobby. I've told them to watch your vids to help educate them and of course I show them how to repot
and what supplies to use. I have have one friend who has 30 something phals and had never repotted them in 3-4yrs! This vid and others like it will help her so much!
THANK YOU!

I bought my first orchid a couple of weeks ago. Call me crazy but imho orchids are weird, they are mesmerising. You get one and somehow this plant starts drawing you in. I think if I do well with this one by summer I'll get another one. They are weird flowers. I love them💗

[@peterbondy2949]

Thanks for this video on fertilizing phails. I was wondering if I could during flowering and now I know. Pete from Canada

[@mitnehmerrippe]

I know this video is two years old, so this might be a difficult request, but would you mind identifying the three phalaenopsis orchids in the first two minutes of the video? I’ve tried to find out through the video and the video description but couldn’t find that piece of info - either because I overlooked, or it really wasn’t there. I really love how the blooms look in all three of these phals, and the one at 00:00:59 in particular has stolen my heart at first sight. Such beauties! Thanks in advance for the ID!

[@allfinns2465]

aaa I thought the same! would anyone be able to tell us? I really want to know...

[@allfinns2465]

oh I found it in the comments its a Taisuco Jasper phalenopsis :D

[@anithajoishy5601]

Can't we use the same water mixed with fertilizer to fertilize other orchids?

[@davesmith5270]

I just purchased a beautiful white and red Phalaenopsis from Lowes. When I set it up in a pot I noticed that the sphagnum moss was green from over watering. Since it has about 13 flowers on it now, I really didn't want to change the media now and chance loosing the flowers. Do you think that it will be okay until the flowers die back? Love your UA-cam channel! It has been so helpful to me learning about these beautiful plants!!

[@christianfox652]

What is the identity of the Phalaenopsis shown at 11:33? I have seen this one featured in several of your videos but can't seem to find a name for it.

[@andr3zon]

Hi! I was wondering if I could still use my fertilizer even though it’s all ready expired

[@danihworld]

Is it ok to keep medium in a dark garage? I'm wondering if it matters where you keep your repotting stuff. Thanks in advance

[@lornablackmore2470]

Great video, handy for reference. Lovely to see the Phalaenopsis 'Sunshine' you have there too. Such a pretty thing.

[@shintaorchidscilacap8800]

Thank you for the information on how to care for orchids

[@medsailing]

gr8 lessons thankyou, love my Phalaenopsis Orchid, mine has droopy leaves at the moment but that maybe down to not watering enough, just gave it a soak pulled the old leaves off and chopped it down to the possible flowering point, see how we go.

[@thegiftlady1]

That sounds very drastic. Good luck.

[@Tiger-Creations]

Hi Danny I love your channel. I have a question. I have been using bloom booster for my phals that's are in bloom and a 20-10-20 for my phals that are in the growing state. But I would like to use the one you use. Is it a good idea to change fertilizer to the one you use for ALL my phals? Thanks again Danny

[@MissOrchidGirl]

Hi, yes it should be ok, fertilizer change will not cause shock if used in the recommended dosage. Always start weak and see how orchids progress :)

Hey Dannie!! Hello from Greece!! Love your videos and advice! So when you water them you fertilize them at the same time . You don't wait a little time to put the fertilizer.. and the waiting _watering time is about 10 min. Not more ?? Or is it up to the plant!!

[@lazarusvo9584]

You can also and silica bags to keep the fert. dry

[@CurlyChemist]

Ok so if you are fertilizing every week or every time you need to water with a weaker solution of fertilizer, how do you store the leftover fertilizer solution? Or do you just make enough for each watering? I only have one orchid so making a gallon every time is a waste, where i could just make a gallon and store it for the entire month and use that for each watering. Hope my question makes sense.

[@MissOrchidGirl]

Hi, many fertilizers tend to degrade once mixed in water, it would be great to either prepare less, or use the left overs with other plants, it won't hurt them 😊

[@Lindolis]

Hello! What are your thoughts on slow release fertilizers? Could the pellets potentially hurt any roots they stay in contact with? Are they safe/effective to use as powder fertilizers?

[@DimaculanganPunch]

New orchid owner here. Ive had my oncidium since May, but it only grew long green leaf. It did not produce a bulb like middle body, but and thin long body. I feed it dynagro foliage pro. Should I add high PK to encourage bloom?

Hi Danni, firstly thank you so much for sharing your knowledge, I have been growing orchids in the tropics/ sub tropics here in Australia for the past 25 years and thought my understanding of them was pretty good! Well you proved the old saying you are never too old to learn 🙃
Apologies if you have covered this but when using the slow release fertiliser, do you still regularly fertilise? I'm guessing not, someone has just recently given me some and I thought I may use them for my collection in the shadehouse to save on time, getting lazy in my old age! Cheers

[@tammiemitchell-vx5dv]

Can I use the water leftover from one watering to water my other orchids at the same time. Seems to me I can… but being new to this I need to ask

[@sahar1usa]

I v been using miracle grow fertilizer for orchid and it works find.
I tried to order Orchid Mix from re-pot but considering they charge shipping it is expensive
One of the issue i have ( im not sure if this is an issue) but my Phalaenopsis orchid grows fine and only bloomed for one year

[@nalinishankar1783]

Hi Danny. Not knowing anything about phalaenopsis orchids, I bought it from a supermarket. It was in sphagnum moss n I repotted in bark. Now the leaves are wrinkled n limp n brown patches on them. Now it is slowly turning yellow. What should I do. Iam more stressed than my orchid. Help me.

[@msoregon91]

I really like the suggestion of diluting the recommended amount to a fourth and fertilizing every time you water. When you say to flush on the 5th week, do you only use water that week and resume fertilizing on the 6th week, or do you do a fertilizing soak after the flush on the 5th week?

[@thegiftlady1]

View the vid again. Think she covered this. Think she said flush with no fert 1x month to remove any possible salts, etc.

[@CherryStClareRealtor]

Do you fertilize 1/4 strength every week with one week of rest And flush. Do I still fertilize when the orchid is in bloom

[@SmurfetBaby]

Do you have a video on how to know if your orchid is dying or just losing it’s flowers? I have a mini phal and I have been taking really good care and the roots looks great but the flowers are falling and the stem is turning yellow only right behind it but not the whole flower spike.

[@JyinRedsong]

Can you use freshwater aquarium water to fertilize orchids?

[@sparkyjoes]

Ha! That’s what I’ve been doing with my moth orchids I got last year. They’re currently reblooming so I guess it’s safe? I know it’s dechlorinated and contains some nitrates, but I’m not sure it provides all they need.
I’m here trying to decide if I should get an orchid specific fertilizer to maybe provide additional nutrients.

[@thegiftlady1]

Orchid Newbie here.
My orchid is stressed. Got her about a year ago and all of a sudden she started stressing = root damage and very few good ones. It has no flowers or any sign of any coming.
I removed dead roots and put it in RO water culture with nutrients☆ because I didn't know what to do but get it out of its pot and remove all dead roots.
My home is always 71° and very dry.
☆ RO water w ferts = [Gal mix] orchid nutrient 1/2"strength, CalMag 1/4 strength, fish/seaweed fertilizer (1/2 t).
Questions are, how can I stimulate root growth and revitalize the leaves before they are really damaged. Which of the 3 media you show in your beginner series will be best. And what size pot do you recommend.
Your site has been so beneficial to me. Hope to hear from you. Thank you. Joanne

[@Isi7859]

Thanks for sharing 😘

[@user-uj6sc7ls9y]

Orchid posts are slotted for breathability, and transparent so the roots can get light. Do you _leave_ your orchids in their opaque, decorative pots all the time? If you do, I don't understand how this would not be bad for the orchid.
I am new to orchids and really appreciate all your videos. 🙂

[@jenniferallen4420]

I dont think the roots absolutely need light to be healthy. Theres plenty of good roots that are actually white from lack of sunlight that function perfectly. The leaves are what needs the light. Roots dont.. thats my understanding.

[@maricarol85]

Seems like the extra outer decorative pot wouldn't allow enough air to get to the roots, though. Just my 2 cents. I'm definitely no expert!

Hi, Great videos. Do you know why it is so difficult to find a supplier of MSU or repotme, or even an equivalent? I've heard Akerne Rain Mix are a make of MSU but again this is hard to find.

Any idea if rabbit manure is safe for orchids or if they like it? I use “bunny honey” (manure) on most of my other flowers and plants and they LOVE it.

[@mysticpixi]

I am brand spanking new to orchids. Purchased my first one a few days ago. Yesterday went to Home Depot and got a spray bottle fertilizer from Miracle Gro. The numbers are 02 02 02. Does this mean it is too weak of a fertilizer? Should I avoid spraying the fertilizer on the orchid?

[@gisselldow2102]

I would also like to know. I've been using this one for a few months but I'm not sure if I'm doing harm or not.

[@latishasuarez1366]

Hello, want to mention I saw something crawling on the phal that you were watering the media. Love video.

[@jewel1753]

Hi Dani. Thank you so much for all your wonderful videos. I do have a question though. I bought a full sized phal that was very dehydrated about a week ago. I've repotted and watered, and it's already looking much better and the leaves are almost not limp at all. The question is about the aerial roots. There are plenty of roots in the medium, and they're looking much better. The aerial roots though are still very wrinkled and shriveled. They are most definitely still alive though. Should I be misting or watering the aerial roots regularly too or will they plump back up once the main plant and leaves are ok?

[@MissOrchidGirl]

Hi, it isn't necessary to mist them, the potted roots will hydrate the orchid. But if you want to maintain them alive you could mist them :) here's more on aerial roots ua-cam.com/video/7GGWbBt2SvA/v-deo.html

Question Miss Orchid ?? I bought a Orchid, it came in a big medium size decorative pot. I took some of the medium out and notice there are two clear pots under neath. Like I could have two Orchids when I repot, do you recommend once I repot to have two separate orchids in two repots/two decorative pots or just get two repots and put them both back together in the same decorative pot that I bought it in?? Does it matter regarding the health of the flower for the long haul??

Very interesting as always ! Do you think you can make a video about signs of nutrients deficiency in orchids ? I am not sure you have in your video list, maybe you do. I think it will be very interesting also to learn how to "read" the deficiencies in these plants and what to do about it, how to fix it.

Hi, yes I will be making a video at some point, but this subject is a very delicate one and it takes years to conclude something. There is a lot of confusing and wrong information about it already, I don't want to add to it, just want to be sure first. This year I will be making some trials with boosters and supplements and see if they make a difference :)

[@bobirceaveronica]

@@MissOrchidGirl Thanks, Dani. It is indeed sometimes confusing information out there... I was thinking also about another video subject, some other things that are confusing for me and maybe for others too... the pH and TDS and ppm... what in the world are those things supposed to be right for the orchid types and how do you keep those in balance, and how do you correct, for example, a bucket of water when you made the pH too high or too low ?... I recently bought 2 paph and 2 phragmipediums and I've read/heard on some video's that you have to be very carreful with the pH... it freaks me out that I might kill my slippers ! :/ I watched on some video's how some people do it, but really I don't get it what and how and why !

Don't over think it, when you start to mess about blindly is when you'll have issues. If you are using bark or sphagnum you most likely don't need to adjust anything ;)

Then repeating this cycle. What do you advise? Is there any validity to this. Her orchids look healthy.

[@MissOrchidGirl]

Hi, I'm not big on diy ferts or hacks of sorts, I use only one fert developed by the Michigan Stats University for the past 4 and a half years or so and the results are what you see in my videos. For me this is good, to each their own 😊
