You are the Queen of Orchids! Without question. I tried and threw all in Dumpster. They do require a lot of attention. Obviously you have time and you love what you do. Queen Orchid Lady!
Thank you Danny for your wonderful videos ! Until recently, I didn't want to own an orchid because I always killed them ! however, I am an avid gardener & wondered why I couldn't seem to keep them alive. That's when I found your videos. Thank God ! I have watched several videos now and feel much more confident. I have learned a lot. I do want to comment on treating infections--- I noticed that I have crown rot on a new orchid that was given to me. I may have caused it by poor watering practice. You showed how to apply cinnamon with a napkin (different video)--- napkin doesn't work well. This video shows you using a Q-tip. In using napkin, I couldn't control where cinnamon landed. Thanks again for all your hard work teaching us.
+DynamicDarren Correct, that is why I pour it in that small spray bottle and leave the rest in the original dark bottle it comes with :) I'll keep it in mind to mention in the next video, although it does say it on any hp bottle label :)
A helpful video! Is it useful to control pests too? I often have problems on silvering leaves, especially at the bottom side while the upper side remain green. What should i do with this silvering leaves? Should i remove it?
hi Dani I'm always watching your tutorial I'm learning a lot now I'm in trouble maybe I bought sick orchids from a friend.as I can see white powder in they're leaves everywhere.theyre blooming now but I think think they're dying sorry
Hi Danni, thank you for the link that you mentioned. I had a brief glance at it and I can see how informative and helpful it will be for me in the future. Great job. Love your channel.
Thanks for sharing the details ..PL let me know how many times should you spray hydrogen peroxide and at what interval.. thanks..Its urgent as my Vanda is loosing leaves too fast
Great video, thank you! You recommend taking steps to make sure that the water evaporates as quickly as possible. Some people recommend spraying orchids with water once in a while because they enjoy the humidity. But would you recommend not spraying with water (unless living in a extremely dry climate)?
Hi, I personally don't find real benefits in misting and yes I would definitely be more cautious in environments that don't promote fast evaporation, or unventilated, still environments :)
+Jackie Fu True, that is why I pour it in that small spray bottle and leave the rest in the original dark bottle it comes with :) I'll keep it in mind to mention in the next video, although it does say it on any hp bottle label :)
I have watched this video several times trying to save my Wils. Eye Candy 'Pinkie'. It came to me in September 2017 in full bloom and was absolutely beautiful. I decided to repot it on October 14, 2017 and used an Oncidium blend medium. It is in a clear, slotted orchid pot which sits inside a clay pot. While I was repotting it, I got an urgent call and had to leave while in the repotting process. The roots looks good so I did not use hydrogen peroxide on the roots before putting it in the pot. I did water it from the top at the sink and left it there while I was gone. After that it was watered by soaking the pot. Suddenly on December 28, 2017 I noticed a black spot on the edge of the leave that turned yellow as it got to the healthy tissue. Within 24 hours the entire leaf turned and another had a spot. I removed the entire bad leaf and the damage of the second leaf. I treated the cut with cinnamon and sprayed all of the leaves with hydrogen peroxide 3% and sat in a room with a ceiling fan. She was looking great and then it happened again on February 19, 2018. I repeated this treatment and now it's happening again for the third time, 3/3/18. I am at a loss. Do I need to treat the medium as well, or remove it from this medium? I have photos, but didn't know how to attach them. ~ Thank you, Connie
should I keep a sick orchid separated from the rest or just on the edge row will be ok( a bit on the side)??Also should we cut the leaves when the orchid has only a few of then?Thanks!!!!!Love your videos.
I usually just drink the alcohol and use fire to sterilize my scissors. You should see my orchids! LOL! Just kidding... I don't actually drink rubbing alcohol.
Question: Do you dilute your 3% hp with water? I am guessing not since you did not mention it but before I do this to my orchid, I wanted to be sure. Thanks Danni.
Hi Danny, sorry to boder you, but I need your opinion. Like four weeks ago, I started to notice this spot on one of my orchids leaves, it is brown surrounded by yellow, it started on the tip of the leave. I think is growing slowly, I know I saw another spot more in the center on the same leave. I have another orchid and the tip is yellow. At the beginning, I thought it was sunburn or intense light damage, so moved them away from window (South face and sun is coming back) then thought it could be spider mites, but only this leave has the damage, I've been spraying a solution with water, dish soap and alcohol and don't see that is working. Can it be fungal infection? I am attaching a link to photo bucket so you can see, but the lesion is now bigger and more brown. Thank you Danny. I want to save this orchid and don't want the problem spreads to my other phalaenospsis. i558.photobucket.com/albums/ss23/contactj07/Mobile%20Uploads/IMG_6095_zpsen7c4zrp.jpg i558.photobucket.com/albums/ss23/contactj07/Mobile%20Uploads/IMG_6264_zpsyctosvdf.jpg i558.photobucket.com/albums/ss23/contactj07/Mobile%20Uploads/IMG_6266_zpsq8rkovtf.jpg i558.photobucket.com/albums/ss23/contactj07/Mobile%20Uploads/IMG_6267_zps6o509wo0.jpg i558.photobucket.com/albums/ss23/contactj07/Mobile%20Uploads/IMG_6268_zpszaf2awsr.jpg i558.photobucket.com/albums/ss23/contactj07/Mobile%20Uploads/IMG_6269_zpsffveagn4.jpg i558.photobucket.com/albums/ss23/contactj07/Mobile%20Uploads/IMG_6271_zpsnrxsevux.jpg i558.photobucket.com/albums/ss23/contactj07/Mobile%20Uploads/IMG_6272_zpsjvih0fpp.jpg i558.photobucket.com/albums/ss23/contactj07/Mobile%20Uploads/IMG_6274_zpsnnmepody.jpg i558.photobucket.com/albums/ss23/contactj07/Mobile%20Uploads/IMG_6278_zpsbwafi6dh.jpg Here are all the pictures I have with problems in leaves. I would like to know what is causing it, if I am doing something wrong or what can I do to stop from spreading or happening. Thank you Danny Jorge
Are you afraid of spreading the bacteria as you’re touching the leaves without gloves? Could you spread it to your other plants? And if you treat your hands what did you do?
I have an orchid that was given to me very sick and I’m trying to save it. However I don’t know if I can is there anyway I can send you a picture of this orchid so you can tell me what I need to do for it.
Hi, Danny. I think I have a sick orchid, but I'm not sure. I wish I could send you a picture of it. Also, could supstrate be causing leaves rot? Thanks in advance, Vesna
I just bought a new orchid and after I got her home she has a small cut on her bulb and some browning like a bruise. it's only a small spot, not affecting the base. what should I do to treat her.
Hi! My orchid is also developing brown spots and the leaves are still green. Leaves are not turning yellow. Could it be bacterial infection or overwatering of orchid? Please help! I don't want to lose my orchid. What can be done now if I have overwatered it?
Hi! My Vanda orchid is developing yellow leaves, then a brown spot appears in the middle. It starts spreading till entire leaf is yellow and drops off. The spot is not slimy but if you press, the tissue is soft near the big brown patch. Three Vanda plants are already dying and even lost top leaves. Please help me to save the rest.
Hi Danny. It seems like my orchid has this infection. The leaves are yellow and have brown spots and now there is an area where it has little swollen balls. I'm worried its reaching the bottom and will spread to the stem. My orchid only has two leaves and both seem to be infected. Should I still cut it, and will it survive?
Hi MOG, one of my orchid seedlings' color turn into purple color from top to toe, I saw the leaves is still glossy and not any sign of desiccated or wilting. How can I fix this to make the color turns back to green. Thanks alot!
Thank you one of the orchids I have just got cheap has this and I shall treat it straight away 😊 the lady in the store reduced them to £1 each as she thinks they are doomed! How silly she is!
Hi, Dani! I am still fairly new to orchids. I have phals and I am having some trouble with watering them. I try so hard not to touch the leaves or the stem with the water, but I seem to keep loosing bottom leaves. Maybe I have them planted too low in the medium?? I would love if you would explain what part of the stem, or base, not to get wet. I can't seem to find this information anywhere. I have watched many orchid watering videos and they never seem to be as careful as I am while watering, yet their plants are great. Please share you thoughts. Thank you!!! :D
+Jamie Delafosse Hi Jamie, well how many leaves did you lose so far? if you say 2, it might be normal :) Phals usually lose bottom leaves as new ones are produced. However you might have a problem with the depth as well, if you could upload a pic on photobucket or flickr I could take a look. Regarding stem rot I do have a video on it, maybe this will help more ua-cam.com/video/ErKc0aYlQCY/v-deo.html
+MissOrchidGirl I was going to submit a photo for you, but that day the last leaf fell from it :( There were only two leaves and they were super green, plump and healthy. I can see now that it was stem rot that made them drop, as the base of the leaf turned black. I am now wondering if there is any sense in trying to save it. It has a decent root system, but no leaves. I have a feeling that it will not be successful.
+Jamie Delafosse yes there is a chance to save it :) try to spray the remaining stem with hydrogen peroxide 3%, this will hopefully kill off the fungus. After a few minutes dry it off very well, I like to place it in front of a fan for 30 minutes to an hour. After that place some cinnamon in the crown and at the leaf joints, but not on the roots! this will keep the place dry. Water the roots when they are dry, like you would a normal Phal, but don't get water inside the stem and crown. With a bit of luck the orchid might either produce a new leaf at the top or a basal keiki. There is a chance this will not work, depends on the extent of the damage, but I believe it's worth a try :) good luck!
Hi... I have an Ecyclia Vitellina that is almost dying and don't know how to save it.

Any suggestion would be very welcome. Thanks
@@diannh2894 My understanding it prevents fungus, It can, for example, prevent the spread of fungus all over the plant. You do want to rinse of the plant sometimes to prevent too much build up. also not all the coppper based fungices are good as some can damage the plants..
Where is a good place to ask a question with photos? I have a cymbidium that I believe has a virus but Im not sure how to treat it. I sprayed it with an over the counter plant fungicide, virus spray and put cinnamon on it. I really don't want to loose the plant.
MissOrchidGirl I think I may just stick to one excitement at a time, hehe. New update tomorrow... I think you may be surprised ;) I know I am! I sent you a private message awhile back... Did it work? The only way I can seen to send private messages is via subscribers. I have tried searching all my settings, but have no clue what I'm looking for, or where to find it.
Your advice is very useful, thank you! My phalaenopsis is probably infected by a bacteria because it has brown spots on the leaves that goes into the leave. The biggest patches are at the stem of the leave but the rest of the leaf is healthy... Should I remove the whole leaf?
Im from the philippines i dont know where i can get that cinnamon is there any option besides from cinnamon use to dry watery part of the orchid because i encountered those problems in my vanda
Hi, the cinnamon should be available in any market, at the cookies section.. or baking section :p where spices like vanilla and stuff are. Take a better look, just any super market or store.
Hi Danni, thanks for this. I suspect my orchid has quite a severe case of Brown rot but i do not want to remove all the leaves before i'm sure (it's spread pretty bad on 3 of 4 leaves while 1 leaf is turning yellow. the stalk seems to be getting spots as well, however it's still growing new flowers. can i send you a few photos before I start cutting? thanks
Ciao! Am observat ca pe radacinile orhideelor phalaenopsis creste un fel de lana broastei cat si pe gaurile de ventilatiie pe care le-am facut in ghiveci, cum si cu ce se pot trata?
+MrCradle87 buna, cred ca lana la care te referi este un fel de mucegai. e bine sa elimini sursa problemei inainte de orice tratament si de multe ori este vorba despre un substrat vechi si degradat sau radacini moarte. cred ca un inceput bun ar fi sa replantezi orhideea in substrat proaspat si sa elimini radacinile moarte, mai ales daca nu ai replantat-o de la cumparare inca, de multe ori substratul cu care vin este foarte vechi. mai departe vorbim de ventilatie si udare corecta, dar mai avem pana acolo, cred ca replantarea este primul pas daca substratul nu a fost schimbat niciodata :)
The normal hydrogen peroxide that can be purchased at your local pharmacy store (or wherever) is already a 3% dilution. Use that straight out of the bottle.
Oh, well, you didn't say that in your first post. Now I understand your question. The answer is "yes," you may dilute the hydrogen peroxide further by adding water. The ratio to dilute it to achieve a 3% solution would be 1:1. Good luck!
You are the Queen of Orchids! Without question. I tried and threw all in Dumpster. They do require a lot of attention. Obviously you have time and you love what you do.

Thanks for the tips! FYI: Hydrogen peroxide degrades in the presence of light. You might want to use an opaque spray container to keep it fresh.

thank you for sharing ur advises,but then how often would i treat my orchids that have black spots in their leaves using hydrogen peroxide?thanks
Can I use the Cinnamon I use in my kitchen to the leaves I cutted
hello miss orchid girl, should I re pot ? new moss or plant food ?

Some of my orchids are not healty(thin) unlike my others.and when repotting,i use charcoal ,mixed with potting soil ,is that ok?
Try copper as fungicide.. it’s one used for organic farming..
How does it work?
@@diannh2894 My understanding it prevents fungus, It can, for example, prevent the spread of fungus all over the plant. You do want to rinse of the plant sometimes to prevent too much build up. also not all the coppper based fungices are good as some can damage the plants..

Hi, yes sure, just upload a picture to photobucket, flickr, instagram, imgur or g plus and share the link in a comment here, I'll take a look :)
all leaves on my orchid or yellow.They have red spot on it...
Ciao! Am observat ca pe radacinile orhideelor phalaenopsis creste un fel de lana broastei cat si pe gaurile de ventilatiie pe care le-am facut in ghiveci, cum si cu ce se pot trata?
+MrCradle87 buna, cred ca lana la care te referi este un fel de mucegai. e bine sa elimini sursa problemei inainte de orice tratament si de multe ori este vorba despre un substrat vechi si degradat sau radacini moarte. cred ca un inceput bun ar fi sa replantezi orhideea in substrat proaspat si sa elimini radacinile moarte, mai ales daca nu ai replantat-o de la cumparare inca, de multe ori substratul cu care vin este foarte vechi. mai departe vorbim de ventilatie si udare corecta, dar mai avem pana acolo, cred ca replantarea este primul pas daca substratul nu a fost schimbat niciodata :)

thanks a lot I already have hydrogen peroxide but still looking for cinnamon...do you have a facebook account for me to ask for help easily??
Hi, the best way to contact me in in youtube comments, I check them daily :) cinnamon can be found at any supermarket at the cookies section ;)
Did u used the hydrogen peroxide with adding water or only alone.
The normal hydrogen peroxide that can be purchased at your local pharmacy store (or wherever) is already a 3% dilution. Use that straight out of the bottle.
Miss Havisham but my.dear nothing 3% available in my country I looked for it all available is 6% so am asking can I add some of water.thanks
Oh, well, you didn't say that in your first post. Now I understand your question. The answer is "yes," you may dilute the hydrogen peroxide further by adding water. The ratio to dilute it to achieve a 3% solution would be 1:1. Good luck!
Miss Havisham thanks very much God bless you
