@tracystrombotne2855 Hey hon, yea i didn't at first either. So it's nice to have a comparison. I am going to do a comparison video with my Cattleya why nots. It was a viewer request. I'll probably air it Friday. It may interest you as well. Thanks for watching! Have a wonderful week 🤗 🌹 🩷 💚

Hey Tess 👋 I can definitely do that! 😊 Thanks for the suggestion! My Red Why not is in bloom too so she is extra beautiful!😊 Have a wonderful week 🤗 🌹 🩷 💚

@shirleyholt898 Hey sweetie Miss Shirley 👋 Thanks for your support always my dear friend! Yes it's still snowing here at 7pm! We got about 7-8 inches 🤪 I'm so ready for spring! 🤣 Have a wonderful week dear friend! Be safe stay warm! 🤗🌹🩷💚

@SitiJackson Your welcome hon, thanks for your support! I appreciate that! Have a wonderful week 🤗 🌹 🩷 💚

Hey hon you can allow it to bloom so you can see it. It is hard decision. It may make the decision for you. Don't cut the whole spike just knock off the buds. After letting one open so you can see the blooms and take a picture. They can use the nutrients from the spike. Good luck with your phal. Keep me posted. Have a wonderful week 🤗 🌹 🩷 💚

@@pealseypix Hey hon, all but 1 are doing good. I maybe can do an update on them. 😊 Have a wonderful week 🤗🌹🩷💚

Ours usually don't! It was 10 years ago they had some and I got these so maybe 10 years from now I'll still have these cattleya 😆

@michaelmccarthy4077 Hey Michael 👋 that is true. I would have thought a large pseudobulb cattleya like an appleblossom wouldn't have went down like it did. But I think that plant has other issues. But have a wonderful week ahead 🤗🌹🩷💚

I agree with this whole heartedly. I've had small plants bloom and beautifully but that's because they were healthy seedlings blooming for the first time. Completely different than a previously bloomed plant, or Phal that is in recovery, by obvious degree and trying to flower.. especially with little to no roots.

@@annareiter952 Hey hon, good morning! Yep we are snowed in! Not as bad as they thought. About 4 inches but it's still flurrying. I'll take pictures when I get dressed and go out to feed the birds. Yes see the plant even dried up the bloom because it didn't have the roots to back it up. Moss must be good for you especially with dry heat. You don't have a humidifier? I am super happy you got some new roots! If you build those now it can possibly bloom this year. Usually once the roots come it can take 2 years to recover. But never know. It could do a small bloom. Good luck. Have a wonderful week 🤗🌹🩷💚

Aww Thanks so much! I appreciate that more than you know! Have a wonderful week dear friend 🤗🌹🩷💚

Hey hon thanks so much for super thanks! 😊 The top reason for a Cattleya not to bloom is light. Some need extremely high light to bloom. I have some Cattleya hanging directly under my strong grow lights. Because they actually hang on limestone cliffs in the wild so that's an extreme amount of full sun. Although I have one Cattleya Ruby Hawaiian paradise that I have had over 10 years and it will not bloom! It's a huge plant. I have put in all kinds of light and even divided it but it will not bloom! It's a frustrating plant for me! 😂 Hope that helps. 😊 Have a wonderful week dear friend 🤗🌹🩷💚

Hey hon, you're welcome! I hope it helps! Have a wonderful week! 🤗🌹🩷💚

Hey Tess 👋 yes I agree! 😊 it's great to have a lot of blooms! It is so hard to pick an absolute favorite 😂have a wonderful week dear friend 🤗🌹🩷💚

@Melissa-loves-orchids Thanks hon, I don't like her. I'm giving her to a friend 🤣

Oh yes! Settle me down is spectacular! No doubt! I adore her!

@tracystrombotne2855 Hey hon, I know! I'm a little afraid of what we will get! My Dr called and Changed my appointment to Tuesday already! Not sure it has to do with the snow. But it's definitely coming! Hope you have a wonderful weekend 🤗 🌹 🩷 💚

@annavoeggia816 Hey hon, oh no! Really? You get time send me a picture. Maybe I can tell. Have a wonderful weekend dear friend 🤗🌹🩷💚

@hillbillyorchids I'm going to upload a blooms video in a bit. Let me know what you think of the mislabeled stuartiana.I would appreciate your thoughts. 😊

Hey hon I did! I wrote a comment. 😊

@michaelmccarthy4077 Hey Michael 👋 yep I sure did! I can't say I notice a difference yet. The sticky traps seemed to do better! The spider Mites have slowed down. Not sure if that's the mosquito dunks or the cooler temps. I am still using them. Have been since like November. Thanks for watching! Have a wonderful weekend 🤗 🌹 🩷 💚

@@katherinenoblet6567 Hey hon, how are you killing phals? I absolutely love phalaenopsis! That's why I own 80 or so! 🤣 Have a wonderful weekend 🤗 🌹 🩷 💚

@ I don't know what I do wrong! no matter what media I have them in, I end up with shriveled floppy leaves! I have to assume I overwater them or repot them at the wrong time. I really don't know why I kill them! My first orchid (Phal) I had for years and it rebloomed every year. It was just in natural lighting in a bright window. Now that I supposedly know so much about growing orchids, I kill every phal I get that is in a pot. I rescued a tiny white one that was completely dried out in a tiny pot and the roots were of course in a tiny original plug....but the leaves looked great and it had two flower spikes. I took it home, soaked it and took it out of the pot and carefully removed it from the plug. I repotted it in a slightly larger clear pot in orchiata, charcoal and chunky perlite....carefully soaked the pot for a couple hours, put it in another outer pot and put it under my filtered windowsill lighting and about 20 inches below my LED lights....soooo has proceeded to get shriveled, floppy leaves and doing what they do for me.🤯 I cut the flower spikes off bc they wilted of course and I figured they were a drain on the little plant....anyway, that is what they do for me. I have two small ones mounted on wood chunks with a bit of moss around the roots and I mist them every day in the morning.....this is my windowsill house environment with about 45-50% house humidity. They HATE me!

let's IM with this. 😁

Do the mounts do same thing?

@ No, I took one that was getting wimpy leaves and put it on a mount. I don't really understand why I cannot figure this out. It is screwy!

@@michaelmccarthy4077 Hey Michael 👋 yep my phal wall and Hoya wall will make such a difference! I need to get busy! Now with my lower back hurting I'm just making it through watering. Ugh it's a bit of work to get those done but mercy me will be beautiful plus a help with space! 🤣 Have a wonderful weekend 🤗 🌹 🩷 💚

@OrchidboyTroy Hey sweetie, I KNOW! Frances is just out doing herself! I think i saw another possible spike yesterday when watering! 🤞 she makes 7 spikes! Wow! She is just a happy girl! But sadly this spring she is gonna have to get chopped! She has way over grown her pot and it's an 8 inch pot! I do have a 10 inch pot but we shall see once I get her out! I think it will be good to take her back bulbs off and see what happens. But that will be late spring early summer! So maybe I won't affect next year's blooms! Maybe 🤞 Have a wonderful weekend dear friend! Hope your enjoying the 2 part WEWA's! 😆 🤗🌹🩷💚

@ That’s gonna be a project! 🪚🔨 Might be an all dayer haha Oh yes, I’m loving wewa all weekend 🫶🏾

@@OrchidboyTroy Oh don't I know it! Plus my back issues will have to be better! That Middleburg Maj about took my back out! 😱 so Frances may kill me! 🤣🤣🤣🤣

@ Death via giant orchid 😂😂😂 I can hear the townsfolk now

@OrchidboyTroy 🤣🤣🤣🤣

@tropicalplantsfinland Hey hon, oh gosh! That's crazy! Sorry that happened to ya! I hope you find it again. It's crazy how some stuff is so hard for you all to find yet we have them and somethings you have that we can't find! 🤣 you would think this day in age it wouldn't be so complicated! 🤣 hope you have a wonderful weekend hon, 🤗 🌹 🩷 💚

@ same to you ❤️

Hey sweetie thanks! You too! May we have many many blooms! 😊 Have a wonderful weekend 🤗 🌹 🩷 💚

Hey hon, yea I'm not sure what's happened in that pot! 😂it was definitely an over load of something! It sure didn't hurt the roots or the plant. So it seemed to be ok with what was going on in the pot, for now. 😂 Thanks hon, I think my body will settle down eventually. When there is a flare up it's really miserable 😢 I can't wait to get through it! 😂Hope you have a wonderful weekend 🤗 🌹 🩷 💚

@michaelmccarthy4077 Hey Michael 👋 yea that would be so easy! 😆 yea it definitely didn't help my back any! 🥺 but she is done now! 🤣 Have a great weekend 🤗🌹🩷💚

@shirleyholt898 Hey sweetie Miss Shirley 👋 we are getting alot of snow today! Its crazy! I guess this will make up for no snow this winter so far! Stay warm sis! Its been difficult watering and resting my back. So doing a little then resting. That's all I can do! Have a wonderful weekend sweetie 🤗🌹🩷💚

@franricks1608 Hey hon, not too likely unless being over potted it stayed too wet and rotted the roots. If it's a vigorous plant it maybe alright if it has a lot of roots. Generally if all is well with the plant, it shouldn't affect blooms. Hope that helps. Have a wonderful weekend 🤗🌹🩷💚

@@hillbillyorchids I just thought that might keep them from blooming. I use pebbles and lava rock like Rick. I don’t think I have a problem overwatering. I probably just need to practice patience. Thank you.

Hey hon, oh if you use lava rock then there is no way over potting is a factor. It's necessary to over pot because of lava rock. Plus it won't allow it to be too soggy or what not. I did do a video for Monday on Size matters 😂 it's a guide to non blooming plants vs seedlings. Also it's about when to allow blooms or not. It was viewers request. Patience can be tricky. But it will fly by before you know it. Hope you have time to watch it Monday. 😊

@tropicalplantsfinland Hey hon, I could make a video for Monday. That gives me a general idea of what to talk about. 😊 Have a wonderful weekend sweetie 🤗🌹🩷💚

@ thank you! 🙏

@juanitahamilton9523 Thanks hon 😊 Happy New Year! 🥳🪅🎊🎉🥂

@annavoeggia816 Hey hon, yea i ordered Oyster grit so I'll have to add it later. But I have another phrag Fred Wright. It's never attempted to bloom for me. But maybe I can add Oyster grit to it. Happy New Years eve! 🥳🪅🎊🎉🥂

@annavoeggia816 Hey sweetie yea must be the weather! I divided a Cattleya today and it really did a number on my back. Thanks for asking 🙂 I have 2 days to rest it before I gotta start watering. It's gonna be a rough weekend I'd say! I know that was yukky! 🤣 with all those bugs 🐛 🤢 🤣 hope you feel better sweetie! Have a Very Happy New Year! 🥳🪅🎊🎉🥂

@dsiegel22 Hey hon, I do always be careful with Hanne popow! Thanks for your support! Have a wonderful weekend and a Happy New Year 🥳🪅🎊🎉🥂

@shirleyholt898 Hey sweetie Miss Shirley 👋 Thanks hon! Wished I'd had Oyster she'll to add in it. I may order it so I'll have it and repot her in months or so. Aww enjoy your company sweetie! Happy New Year! 🥳🪅🎊🎉🥂

@wandashaw3551 Hey hon thanks so much! Happy New Year! 🥳🪅🎊🎉🥂

@michaelmccarthy4077 Hey Michael 👋 I didn't have any, 🙁 I need to get some more! I may change her moss in 6 months and get Grit. Have a wonderful week Happy New Year 🥳🪅🎊🎉🥂

@tropicalplantsfinland Hey hon, 👋 yea some really are behind on what Orchids really want. They believe the myths like watering with ice cubes on a tropical plant! Geesh! They need to get with the times. 😂 the older generations were just stuck in their ways I guess. Today it's all about making your Orchid thrive not just survive. 🤣 but i know it's harder for you guys to find what we use here in the states. I 100% recommend the Jack's 2 part fertilizer system. Hands down it's the best absorbed calcium of any fertilizer. The dolomite lime is important. It has to be dolomite lime. Other lime are too hot to use. And calmag is super important imbetween. Glad your looking into it. If you have any questions please ask. Have a wonderful weekend 🤗 🌹 🩷 💚
