Another valuable video on how you care for these oncidiums. I love oncidiums. For me they are the orchids which provide the most satisfaction for the amount of time invested in caring for them.
Very good information. I’ve always thought that shriveled oncidium bulbs meant poor cultural practices and the plant was ready for the bin. This has taught me that they seem to need to go thru this dry to wet cycling pattern, that it’s natural, and shriveled bulbs can be revitalized from soaking. I’d love to hear more about the oncidiums in your collection.
I made several videos on trichocentrums which are part of the Oncidium alliance. There is also one on Oncidium sphacelatum and yes wet and dry cycle is paramount for Oncidiums
Love the locals! Your growing conditions are the same as mine, so any advice is perfectly tailored to your needs :))) Feel free to subscribe to my channel.
This video came at just the right time: I have a few new oncidiums which need to be repotted and I was not sure what to use since I have not been very successful with oncidiums. Tree fern is my choice and, hopefully, I will have an “orgie of roots”!😍
@@orchidhouse Yes! Thank you very much. He did a nice job with my shade house and will be coming back to help me get what's left of my orchids back in shape.
I personally do not like and do not use Lava rock as an orchid medium. Of course, this does not mean it is bad or that it should not be used. It is just my own personal preference. As long as you make sure the plant gets an occasional good soaking and gets totally dry in between watering, you should be fine. You do have to figure how that works out with lava rock (soaking and drying time)

I'm sure you will !!!
I will be repotting some of my oncidiums so this video came just in time. I will try tree fern fiber for the first time.
Great! Keep me posted! Did you connect with Scott?@@venehamilton7010

Hola,que substrato empleas para la psicosis papillon?gracias
una mezcla de carbón y roca esponjosa en el fondo y musgo sphagnum arriba. Dejo que el musgo se seque cada vez.
Thanks for the information, how do you feel about growing them in lava rock?
