Degreased pine wood is fine, but fresh pine wood is not recommended, because the resin is not good for orchid roots. Tamarind tree is supposed to be fine.
Yes, that would be great with holes on the slab. These holes can also increase the air movement between orchid roots. However, watering is the key. What kind of mounting slab is secondary.
Each potting media has its good sides and down sides. I can't tell you that whether a potting media is good or not. This series of videos have been recorded since 2017, and is still updating, you can see that if the growing method is good or not by your own judgment. ►ruclips.net/video/ZKWTmhr5Qmo/видео.html&ab_channel=Sam%27sOrchids
Thank you. I'm really glad that you asked, even though I've put the links in the description. _Dendrobium aphyllum_ has different care tips in different seasons, that I've stated in the update videos. Hope you enjoy them. You can watch the play list here: ruclips.net/video/zCMtVUGhpec/видео.html Usually it takes 3 year to see the first bloom from a new mounted keiki. But we possibly can see the flowers next month.
Thank you. They were mounted for approximate 2 months. Nothing really have changed but only 1 or 2 tiny new leaves. I’ll make another video about how I take care of the new mounted keikis in winter for updates.
You can check the links in the description to see how they were growing. Now they are just growing a little longer than last update in July, I'll update when they look much different.
I don’t have Spanish moss, but I have a Tillandsia stricta kept under pendulous Dendrobiums. They can grow in the same environment, however, they don’t share the same flowering and watering schedule. Therefore, it’d be better to grow them in separate pots or mounts.
No, don't mix them together. If you grow them in the same pot or mount, they can survive, but you may have problems to make them bloom. This is my 2 cents. However, if you insist trying it, why not? Everything is possible. Happy growing!
Let’s clarify the question. First of all, Spanish moss is a kind of air plant called Tillandsia usneoides, is also a flowering plant. If you mean the living Spanish moss, my first reply is what I was talking about. Some companies sell dry Spanish moss as a potting media, but I only saw people using dry Spanish moss for decoration here in Taiwan. If you mean adding dry Spanish moss on the mount, yes, you can mix Spanish moss in the potting media (but it doesn’t help much). It doesn’t matter what kind of potting media we are using (we can even add no potting media on the mount), the key point is how much water and fertilizers the potting media can retain, then, how frequently we have to give water to meet an orchid’s needs. And that depends on the growing environment.
No, these keikis are den. aphyllum. As I know, “Honohono” is how people in Hawaii call den. anosmum. If you are new to pendulous dendrobiums. I would recommend you den. aphyllum. Den. aphyllum is easier than den. anosmum.

Thank you, your information about mounting the orchids

Degreased pine wood is fine, but fresh pine wood is not recommended, because the resin is not good for orchid roots. Tamarind tree is supposed to be fine.

I don't have _Oncidium forbesii_ .
It good idea
would you recommend drilling holes on the board so roots can attach themselves to board
Yes, that would be great with holes on the slab. These holes can also increase the air movement between orchid roots. However, watering is the key. What kind of mounting slab is secondary.
Boa noite, gostei
Love, love, love this idea! Did you paint or stain the wood?
No. Better not to, the chemicals may affect the growths of roots.
can this be done with types of orchid. i have the common orchid the one home depot sales
Yes, you can mount any epiphytic orchid on a wooden slab. Just control the watering properly.

How are the keikis ?

Wooow🖒❤
Can you mix with Spanish moss?

Orchids Sam's so no. Or you don’t know. Thanks.

Orchids Sam's why not? Would the orchids dry the moss out?
