I checked their site. Unfortunately they do not carry moisture meters. Thank you for responding to me.
@@paulamilano8723 They’re also kind of pricey.
Danny I know you always tell us not to follow your advice only as we live in different climates and environments and that we should always do our research. But I would be lying if I said that I do that. So far I've only done my research from your past tutorials and I've tweeked my care of my orchids to suit my environment. I must say that it's because of your advice and tutorials that I've been successful in growing and saving some rescue orchids over the past two years. Thank you so much for all that you do. 🤗
the "repot your new orchid" advice saved me so much trouble .. I was super scared to repot my first blooming mini-phal, but my friend straight up told me, that I absolutely have to do it ASAP! .. so I did .. and not only the blooms survived, but the flower spike swelled and started producing new blooms in about a month after I repoted .. now (6 months after purchase) I have a completely new spike! and 2 new leaves grew during summer!
Thanks to you, this is the FIRST TIME that I have orchids and they are thriving and getting big!! Thank you ❤️
My orchid has grown so so much and flowered huge! I repoted with the medium you recommended. Now it has outgrown its large pot!
Thank you so much for your experience and generous wisdom Danny! I’m no longer a beginner, no longer an orchid murderer and EVEN get my orchids to rebloom now WOOHOO (thanks in large part to you 😉) but it was really good to hear these important reminders.
Danny, you are my 'influencer', for want of a better term. Yes, I search the net but I always come back to your videos. I have two sick Phalaenopsis .. and it is down to my watering (I think). Thanks for that ... and yes, I am a 'newbie'. I have been growing for 18months.
I've made a huge mistake with a cocoa peat + bark mix. It was so dense that it suffocated the roots of 3 of my Phals. The worst thing is that I suspected this might happen but waited for 3 months in order to repot the orchids in bark and sphagnum moss. Thanks to your videos, Danny, I layered the pots properly and currently all Phals are having the time of their lives.
Hi Danny,
I’ve been watching your tutorials and videos, I’m impressed. I’ve learned a lot. Thanks!
Thanks Danny, you are Awesome! Your beginners series truly helped me greatly.
I use the repotme granular fertilizer on my hoyas and got my first blooms ever - it's worth it!
Hi Dani. I LOVE your videos - thank you so much for sharing your knowledge and experience with us. Could you do a how to care video for cymbidiums please? Much love!
Bought all my orchids on clearance, all but one from hardware store garden sections lol. Only have two hardware store ones that didn't succumb to stem rot, and the only garden center clearance orchid I have is doing fantastic. If they keep doing well I may have the ability to justify buying one not on clearance (and from my favorite garden center because they rock lol).
Thank you because of your video's.......I have learned so much and all my Orchid look great. X
I think Dany you have a special gift with those orchids.
I've had quite a journey with my orchid. It was a gift from my mom and we both assumed it would die soon, I didn't know anything about special orchid care, the only thing I knew was they were supposedly finnicky.
However, the plant gave me a real sense of personality, responding to light and relocation, and despite me ignorantly watering it and leaving it in the store pot for about 10 months, it seemed to be doing fine. Then I realized it was putting out a spike, and for the first time I looked into orchid care. I don't think you need me to detail the rollercoaster I was bound for.
Long story short, despite me accidentally rotting out all but 2 aerial roots, she's coming back. I wanted to share, 1 of those aerial roots has a joint point with a dried, fleshless section, about 1 cm size. I have never cut it because it was one of the only roots it had, I'm emotionally attached I guess, but also, a few cms from the dry point, it put out another root tip which is still growing. I'm paying really close attention to see if that root coating flesh repairs given enough time and health.
I've also already decided to clip the next spike just to keep it putting that energy in roots and leaves for another year
Thanks for all your helpful videos
The joys of a happy plant👍❤️
I feel for you...been there and still trying...these beautiful plants teach you patience!...in a BIG way!!
Great video, thank you Dani
Great video!!💕
Yet another excellent tutorial! Btw, Howeara Lava burst has exploded! 😍 You have to show her when all 3 flower spikes open their blooms!
Love ❤️ Danny's voice!
I have a question. If you use a moisture meter to know when to water your orchids, which brand do you use? I have 40 orchids and of course they don’t dry out at the same time.
Thank you! Which rePotme fertilizer do you recommend? I water my orchids with distilled water since we have hard water.
Should i keep on making my pot bigger? The roots of my orchid are poking thru the bottom and sticking to the plate underneath. Please help! My baby is growing lol your advice is too good! Lol. Should i trim or ropot? Do you have a video for that?
I have my Orchid in a rocky mix of-lava rock, and a self watering pot, under a red grow light, I have over 12 blossoms on this plant!!
A red grow light promotes flowering…
Beautiful doves❤
My orchids seem to dry out quickly in the wintertime when they are inside with our heater on. Should I use a humidified?
I hope someone can answer this for me. A couple of my orchids have gotten splits in the end of the leaves an inch or 2 long. Even on some new leaves. Any ideas why this is happening?
Love your videos unfortunately the company you show us and do business with do not ship to Canada,which is sad because I have to go to a Orchid grower to get the good repotting soil
I finally tried my luck with an orchid last spring after watching a couple of your videos. It was just a standard big box store phalaenopsis orchid. After the flowers dropped, I cut off the stem and has just been patiently watching. Started getting worried it won’t rebloom again because all it did the last few months was grow roots and leaves. After this video, I’m more reassured it’s probably just not the right season yet. At what point do you repot though? I repotted once when the flowers dropped but now all the roots are squeezing out of the small holes and out of the pot. Thanks for sharing all your knowledge and experience!
Sounds like you are doing pretty well with your orchid. As long as it has experienced a proper drop in temperature at night you should see bloom spikes start to grow in the next month or so.
Can I keep an orchid in a large glass vace with the live moss instead of a pot with wood chips as a permanent home? I love the look of it.
Hello, Miss Orchid Girl, I was wondering if you could recommend any plant companies, that I may get a full sized Phalenopsis orchids, it good condition? Thanks
Hi there learning curve happening here 😂 Quick question- when you have a substantial root/s growing outside the pot how do you keep them alive? Do you mist them daily or repot and tuck them into the new pot?
I'm not seeing your links. Love your videos... help.💕
have you heard of an orchid called sapphire galaxy, it's purple and blue, although the leaves look like they have been dyed, that vivid blue colour. it is currently 32.99 on serenata flowers.
What specific LED bulb is preferred for a grow bulb? Please be specific: name the bulb I can find at a Lowes/Home Depot type store. And how much distance between the bulb and the orchid?
Danni yes I would love to see my oldest orchid bloom but first I just want her to live after I get her new pot every that I need to fix her 😮😢
Miracle grow for orchids potting mix is that ok Danni bc that is all they had at Home Depot when I went there n orchid moss it looks like shag moss n the other kind of shag n the brand is bettergro premium grade
haha I bought orchids from their leaves, I always look out for those with very interesting leaf shapes and colours. I guess i'm odd 1 out. :> ( I recommend "Dendrobium leonis" small bloom but smells great! like vanilla)
My mini orchid is starting to naturally (I think) lose it's first bloom. Checking to make sure I haven't killed it.
Dani You use the term "your environment" A lot. I line in northern Washington state where the outside winters are extremely cold, but how does that have any effect on the fact that I'm growing my orchids in my home which we keep at between 65 & 70 degrees all year long. Obviously I have no plans to subject any orchids to the outside temp. I realize the cold does effect the humidity inside. So what are the optimum indoor conditions for lets say orchids that don't get much sunlight, like we get here in Spokane?
Hi danny, do you have a video on doritis? regards from the philippines 🤗
💚💚
I wish i could attack a picture of my orchid. You helped me saved her life!!!
Danny: Is there another location I can ask questions (other that at the end of a video)? I am not sure I can locate this same video if that is the only place I will receive a response from you.
EVERY orchid I bought from the local grocery store has died. I follow you exactly. I repot and notice the roots are like the picture you showed, smashed beyond recognition. I repot them anyway, and before I know it, they are dead. The only one I have still alive is what I got from WalMart. They use a different grower and I have had this one over a year. I do a soak every 5 days or so I use Repotme bark and Spagna moss and HurraY, doing fine. .... now that I think about it every plant I have bought from that grocery store has died.
See if your area has a local orchid society. I am only new to orchids 6 months, but after watching Dani's videos I joined our local society and learned so much!!
Unfortunately the advice to repot quickly often results with roots that then die off. This is because the existing roots are used to the medium it was in and cannot handle the transition. Most successful orchid growers will tell you NOT to repot quickly, even in the case of suboptimal media. It’s MUCH better to wait to repot until you see new root growth on the orchid. When you see that, THEN repot. The New roots will then be conditioned to the new media and then it won’t matter so much that the old root system dies off because the new roots grow and take over.
Phal roots, but it also applies to all orchids, are particularly sensitive to media changes. Once they are conditioned to the old media, they don’t easily adapt to new media.
It’s hard when the old root system is in such a poorly state though as sometimes repotting quickly is necessary but you’re pushing rocks uphill in these situations, as the saying goes. Best thing is to try and source orchids from specialist nurseries if possible. They’re usually treated a lot better by the growers and you’ll have a much better chance of success. Best of luck 🌿🌸🌿
There’s a grocery chain in my area that all their phals are in compacted sphagnum. And they water them after getting them so that mess is soaking wet. Most plants I’ve impulsively bought there have died of stem rot. Leaving them alone just about guarantees it.
@@tinngglyone if that’s the case, then repotting, or not repotting, wouldn’t make a difference. The stem rot is already there and in 95% of cases, the Phal can’t survive as it’s most critical structure is already badly compromised.
Should I put my orchids outside when it gently rains?
You should save some rain water to water your orchid. And I wouldn't place it in the rain directly water might get into the main crown and cause rotting. I usually place mine on a table under a covered porch so the aerial roots benefit from the moisture in the air. Hope this info helps.
The buying a sick orchid one, hits hard because i was saving up for a black jack paph and the store was literally closing so i bought the first one i saw and damn the bitch had no roots. To be precise 3 sad ones. One broke of the other died so its has only one root so i'm praying for rootgrowth right now but at least it has survived until now
Most orchid instructions says to put ice. Or other misinformation.
I've killed over a dozen orchids and I show no signs of stopping.
I have NEVER had success with any orchid I have been gifted. NONE.
I keep getting milts and they are just like american metalheads they always die young😭😭
