    Thank you for all your videos! I received an orchid as a going away gift from my previous workplace, and I needed to learn how to take care of it. I ordered a new, larger orchid pot, orchid media, and a foliar spray. I raise composting worms, so I already had sphagnum moss, which I add to my worm bins for bedding, on-hand. At least I didn't have to shell out extra bucks for that!
    I know how to keep regular houseplants alive. I have aquariums and composting worms precisely because I love my many houseplants. Aquarium water and vermicompost are great for regular houseplants and keep them thriving. But orchids? Umm....never tried them up to now. The prospect seemed daunting. Thank goodness for your expertise. I guess I have another adventure on which to embark, haha!

    Thanks for the info about fertilizing the Orchid, I've had my orchid for at least 3 years and I've never fertilized it. It's doing incredibly well so I never thought to fertilize it. In fact it's already wanting to bloom again even though the last Blossom fell only a couple months ago on another Spike. I think your videos are awesome, thanks again

    Hi,, I absolutely love your videos on orchids. I’m new to growing them and find your expertise so helpful. Thank you . I recently received a small orchid from my grandson for Mother’s Day. It didn’t look healthy to me. So I decided to take it out of its small pot just to have a look. Lo and behold there were three individual orchids jammed in the small pot…what a gift to me😊. I then proceeded to plant each individual one in its own small pot. I removed all the moss as it didn’t look healthy. Added more moss and bark in layers. Two of them seem to really do well but one isn’t. Any tips would be so appreciated. Thank you

    Hello Danny. First of all thanks a lot for all the amazing videos and advice. I would like your opinion about something. I love orchids but I am quite new to this "hobby".
    So a couple of weeks ago I decided to repot three mini Phalaenopsis I have. I started recently watching your videos and I started watching from the beginning so I hadn't reached the video where you say to not repot them in the Summer. Anyway I did it. My second mistake was that I had bought the wrong bark. When I bought it I didn't think it will be too big for the mini ones and when I found out was a bit too late. So I repotted them anyway. Also the pots I used are transparent plastic ones but they don't have holes.
    So I was thinking to buy the right bark and make some holes to the pots but that would mean that I'll have to repot them again in really short time. So I don't know what is best for them. Shall I leave them as they are for at least a year and watch how they go, or should I re repot them?
    Sorry for blabbering so much. Looking forward to your answer. Thank you in advance.

    Hi Danni! I've been watching your videos, for atleast 5 yrs and just recently, started getting back, to caring well, for my Orchids! Your videos are the best that I have viewed, professional, clearly presented and very thorough! i live in New Jersey where, we have very cold Winters and although my plant room, has radiators in the room, it is located on the west side of the entrance, to the house! I have installed oil radiator heaters, to make sure, their maintained @ a temperature, of 58°-70° during the winter months. Just wondering, how often, should my Phalaenopis Orchids, be wiped free of dust? I use warm water, with a cotton swab to clean them. I plan to repot in spring, right now, I have three that, are in bloom my burgundy/white gum drop and 2 beautiful white ones! One pink striped, who sprouted a KiKi and im waiting, for her to spike and she always usually does, around December/January so patience is key! Thank you again, for all your help as, I am a serious plant lover of many different tropicals from Orchids, to Adenium's, which are dormant now! Happy holidays to you😊👌

    @equusedi 10 місяців тому

    First of all, thank you so much for your very detailed videos and great explanation and information. I'm new grower and the more I learn, the more "paranoid" I get whether I am doing everything right or not, lol! My Phalaenopsis seem to be happy because they show new root growth and now have spikes. Some say to not mist or spray them because water will sit at the bottom of the leaves and that could lead to leaf rot unless the Orchid is mounted in such a way that the water can run down, some say to spray on a regular basis, so it can be confusing. I recently bought several Orchid plugs but some had really bad roots, how do you care/rescue these? I'm starting to think it's better to go to a grower where you can physically see the Orchid plug but this is not always possible. Once again thank you for your videos, they have already helped me a lot!

    Thank You for sharing this video! I think I’m finally learning how to care for our orchids. They were moved from the direct east summer sun, to a nice north bright no full sun window. Their leaves are so bright n thick. I’m just worried that I’m not doing something right. Wondering if I should leave them there for the winter early morning lows, 33-35 days/eves 65-70s thick curtains for during dark cold times. I don’t know if they care to be moved?

    I live in Miami. I placed my new phal orchid at the west window. Some air roots dried out and the leaves drooped after a few days. I soaked it and placed it on the north facing window. The leaves are not recovering. The roots in and outside the pot are silvery green. How long before I water again, I’m scared to over water. It’s my first orchid😭 And do I use the ceramic pot or the clear pot?

    Do you have any suggestions for growing a Phalaenopsis orchid on a piece of tree bark or w/o a pot?

    I have mostly carnivorous plants, which require pure water, so I was already aware of all the minerals in tap water. For some reason, it didn't occur to me that my orchids would also prefer pure water. Stupid mistake corrected now. ;) Thank you!
    Also, what do you do to help an orchid with bad roots? I received a miniature with a lot of squishy roots, which I noticed when I repotted it into a better medium. The only good roots are aerial ones. :(
