#Orchids #RogersOrchids
What I have done in the past, is put a couple inches thick moist moss in the bottom of a gal ziplock bag and left the zipper enclosure open about 0.5 in. This provides a humid "green house" effect
I just rescued three vandas right off to the rubbish bin. They might not be happy but I am. The cold has devastated my vandas! I'm over it, no more vandas. The few that have survived will be cared for.
What finished this one off was the cold nights.
@@GrowingOrchidswithRoger That's exactly what took mine down also
Hi Todd and Roger. Sorry to hear about your vandas. I too am not buying anymore vandas. Most of them died during my two years of neglect. They really need to be kept humid. Not an easly task since they are hung bare rooted. Dry season is really dry here. So now I only grow cattleyas..........
Suggestion: Putting a plastic bag over it improves the humidity and keeps it warmer. I do that with cuttings to get rooted.
Fingers crossed! I hope the Vanda recovers, as it is so special. 🙏🤞
Thanks.
Bravo! So wonderful to watch new roots come y see the plant come to life. Especially because it was a special gift as well. Onwards y upwards....❤🧚♀️
It is unlikely to make it - the rot seemed to be in the whole stem.
Hope it makes it. I understand about special plants, especially if they have come from someone special.
I don't think it will.
Indeed some orchids or special, not necessarily because they or hard to find, but because the story that goes with them. Good luck, I hope it does recover!
I think it's lost.
@@GrowingOrchidswithRoger It's worth a go anyhow. Best of luck
Wishing you the best of luck with the plant.
Thanks.
Wow! That's a lot of cinnamon!
Good luck 🤞🍀.
Thanks.
Now my renanthera... They're flourishing and blooming!
I only have one left out of the 4 I bought but it seems to be doing ok.
Good luck - fingers crossed! I really think a rooting hormone or keike paste will be needed for recovery…
Good luck!
Thanks.
Really interesting this video
Thanks.
Fingers crossed but I have to agree with you, it's probably to far gone. Maybe some rooting powder and a plastic seal around the base
I think the rot has probably travelled up the whole stem. The top leaves are holding each other in place.
@@GrowingOrchidswithRoger Too bad, really
Hope it works. Something similar was happening to my Renanthera Gerald Tan, but I caught it in time. Cut off the bottom few inches which were rotting, sealed the cut with cinnamon and all is well. Luckily, mine had some newer roots further up the cane
Once cold damage gets into a stem, there's not much can be done.
I wonder if you should’ve left the stem a little longer, put cinnamon on it, then put candle wax to seal it.
WOW! IS this the one that bloomed recently? It may come back.hope so.
Yes, but it was a poor spike and many buds blasted.
Sorry to see this. What caused the rot do you think?
Structural cell damage due to cold and then infection/rot set in.
Curious to hear if the emergency care was successful.
It's still alive but not doing well.
Don't dip your possibly diseased plant parts into your supply of chemical. You want to keep your supply clean. Put some into a cup or something else, and then dip it. Then pitch the excess. You don't want to contaminate your chemical.
My fingers are crossed. If the rot is not too far would a root hormone not give it a better chance? I never used that on orchids but might be worth trying..
I think the rot was in the whole stem.
Did it work?
I have a similar looking Vanda minus the black spots on the leaves (I think mine was left too dry too lon, I had a mental health problem for the last few months plus my room gets verry dry during winter)... the top 3 to 5 leaves are still green and the roots belwo would also be green 🤔
No - it just rotted and all the leaves fell off.
A bit confused here..... some of your replies from 2 months ago state the vanda is still alive but not doi g well, one update from 3 months ago that the orchid had rotted and all the leaves fell off and now from 8 days ago that its alive and has a spike? Which one is it??
Could it be two Vandas?
@@GrowingOrchidswithRoger there I only one vanda on the video being saved?
So how is this vanda now? Has it grown any new roots?
It's still alive and growing - but not really doing well.
@@GrowingOrchidswithRoger Good to hear, do you have any update videos on this orchid?
Is it sugar cinimon
Cinnamon is a spice?
were you able to save the vanda?
Yes - it's just started a spike.
is it working
Not really but it's still alive and currently in bloom.
Update plz
It rotted and all the leaves fell off - gone.
hello nice video i did the same before watching just this morning, did it work for u ?
The Vanda continued to rot so as expected, didn't make it.
Well done, Hannah. Are chemical fungicides more difficult to acquire in the UK than the US? Just curious.
We still have a few available.
We can only try to the best we can, here's hoping and wishing.
It at least has a chance now.
