I can’t believe how well your Phals are doing. Just gorgeous! I’m having such poor luck with summer bloomers, they all get stem rot and die after about 2 months. I know you keep your room warm but what humidity do you have? Do you use a humidifier? Thanks so much. 🩷

Hi. I recently subscribed to your channel and am enjoying your posts. I appreciate the cohesiveness of your pots… a clean beautiful collection on neatly arranged shelves.

Thanks for the care tips for oncidium! I noticed my first flower spike shadow on 15 Aug, and now it's the waiting "patience" game 🤣 finger cross! I hope I can be patient for the next 6 months!

Beautiful! Thanks for sharing!

.....your videos give a lot of information, ...you come up with great ideas for a topic, and your editing.....which takes some time,... is great!.......love these updates..... That Haiku Dawn is gorgeous....great growth........the C. Fascelis bloom is a stunner, beautiful orchid......your a great grower Nicole!

Hi Nicole, are you using the light bulbs for lower light level plants on the other shelves ?

Thank you for this video! After watching, I realized this is the type of Cattleya I need in my collection so I bought a rmueller cross. I got the BC rustic spots H&R ! We’ll see how she does 😃🙏

She was in n my bucket list. Finally got one a couple months ago. She was in flower and when it died off, I was going to cut the flower spike. Glad I didn’t! I didn’t know I can get multiple blooms off the same spike! So pretty and smells so beautiful!

This is such a clear and thorough beginner guide. I really thought I could not grow these because they did not root well or spike in my kitchen...semi hydro or organic..but since putting them into a HOT room, they are doing great. Thank you!! 😅

Thanks for opening up the world of orchids collection for me. I buy from supermarkets and occasionally garden centres. But the variety is somewhat restricted: phalaenopsis (miniature or large) and Dendrobium . All hybrids I guess. I never see a choice of species. The most exotic I have is the occasionally scented Oncidium (‘dancing lady). Have a super week.

Beautiful!!!

Weirdly all my orchids I've repotted with bark, the roots are rotted. But the ones I've put in ICU with moss are growing new roots. Ive just repoted them with moss now as it seems to work for me?! Hopefully i can slowly introduce bark because i have so much bark and moss is expensive 😂

Amazing growth on these throughout the years! And yeah it always happens that a few are bound to not make it but most of yours made it and that's amazing!

Hi Nicole. This was a very nice update. You grew your seedlings beautifully. It’s amazing to see how big they grew. Thanks for sharing your update. ❤️👏🤗

I’m a fairly newly obsessed orchid parent & have been enjoying your videos. I recently purchased some seedling orchids so it’s good to see that they can grow and thrive. Thank you for your great videos. 🇨🇦

It is so interesting to see the update on your orchids and how they grow. I love novelty phals. Your phal amboinensis is beautiful. Unfortunately, the one that I have does not grow well for me. is cattleya aclandiae compact? I am thinking about getting one.

Glad you discovered plantio la orquideA! They are one of my absolute favorite vendors when it comes to brassavola and cattleya orchids They're crosses just look phenomenal and so far they've been really good about shipping quickly and I've received each plant in very healthy condition. I have 3 of their plants and I love their choices of unique crosses. Love the video! I really like seeing how orchids, especially the actual plant and foliage and how they change over time. Very helpful :) P.S. I think you should def put the encyclias into terra Cotta like you mentioned. Mine do very well like that and the one I have in plastic just doesn't seem to do as well. I find they like a quick wet dry cycle or at least mostly dry. But I will say be careful when repotting and time it just rightwithnew roots coming out of a new growth. I go back after repotting about a month after I repot, and will do a second repotting before the new roots get down into the media too much just because like cattleyas, its possible all of theold roots will die. MOG recommends the 2nd report for cattleyas and after trying that this year when I reported all of my orchids... Wow. Game changer and so right about it. I'm debating just getting rid of all of the roots except for the new ones on catts and cyclias. But that's so terrifying >_< not sure I can go against my instinct to do that Sorry for such a long comment. -L

Thanks for the updates! It’s always interesting to see how the orchids adapt, grow (or not 😢) and reward with beautiful blooms. And thank you for keeping it real with sharing the ones that didn’t thrive. It’s an encouraging reminder for me that despite our efforts to provide the best care, some orchids just may not have been healthy when we purchased them and losing orchids doesn’t mean we were bad plant parents. It’s frustrating when an orchid fails to thrive but I learn more when I think through the possible reasons why and that will help me be more successful the more I get into this hobby. 😊💜

I’m afraid to repot my oncidium bc it’s waay overdue and large. It seems as though you don’t use large pots. Do oncidiums like to be kind of snug in a pot?

❤❤ lovely and it blooms small

These videos are my fav! Some incredible growth, how awesome 😁 Thanks so much 🌺😁🪴

Im going to start using spagnum only with my phals too

Thanks for making such a detailed video

That kitty of yours!!

One of my favorite videos with the aclandiae crosses my favorite 🎉🎉🎉🎉💚🌿🥰

I remember very well when you went to the festival and how complimentary you were about Raphael, the owner of Planteo. The next time I went to his nursery, I told him about your comments on your video and he was very touched. Next time I am going, I will let him know about your success with the plants your purchased from him😍

that aclandiae is big, I'm surprised it hasn't bloomed yet

Que vídeo incrível! É o tipo de vídeo que meus gosto em cultivo de orquídeas: a evolução das plantas ao longo do tempo. Você escolheu muito bem esse assunto, Nicole, e percebo que não é a primeira vez que você grava um vídeo assim. Por favor, continue fazendo isso!

This was a really nice update. Thank you. It's so nice to see the progress some of them made, and to learn from the lack of progress of the others. ❤

I really enjoyed this. You are absolutely right that it is very reassuring to see the rate of growth. 😊

Great update, thanks. I love Plantio la orquidea also. I have to order online, and everything I have ever ordered has been very reasonably priced and has thrived. Thanks, Sherrii

Love yer videos! ❤ could really use one on molds and such.. i dont like how much i worry about things co-growing in my orchid pots! Lol..

I love seeing updates. Some of those grew amazingly fast! Losing a few isn’t bad at all.

I enjoy these updates videos. It’s nice to see how they changed

Hi. Girl. Tip on a fragrant phal that smells of orange??? My wildcat bobcat smells like grape hyacinth...

Beautiful bellina species..

Its so cool you got to go! I have a leutoeola seedling that is struggling too. I think they can be fussy.😊

Hi there! How much water does the Sweet fragrance like? I'm new to oncidiums and dont think I've got it down yet!

Hi Nicole, I have followed your tips and my plants are doing great. One question. Do you keep your humidifier and fan on during the night? If I turn them off, my humidity drops to 40%. Thank you.

Very daffodil-like in shape. I get a thrill every time I manage to get a reflowering. Well done.

Hi Nicole, I love the bag babies. I couldn't believe it I found a BL. Yellow bird x bl. Richard Mueller and other cattleya seedlings at Lowes in NJ. Just saying,😊 if you have the chance you should take a peek.

Loved that 'pink daffodil' orchid at the start :-) I spotted a vanda in there too. Your lighting set-up is fantastic by the way. All LED tubes?

Props to Missorchidgirl! She's full of good tips and knowledge, isn't she?! I like your plan and your channel. And I love these videos that help to make life with orchids more efficient because it really can be time consuming when you love these plants, and just wanna do super right by them. But it's also more than worth the investment to make life easier. Because... Its better for them in the long run... ^_^! P.S. I do not find leca to be wicking.. honestly. It is good at evening out to a point but not very wicking.. perlite is more wicking in my opinion and in all of the projects I've tried. But it worked great to use leca with a bit of long strands of sphagnum throughout. -L

Im enjoying my wildcat/bobcat catt...somewhat scented..

Yours is beautiful. Your tips are on spot..

So so camt wait till i get a sharry baby orchid..

Is solo beautiful 🤩

When the hybridizers found that Richard Mueller they opened up an entire new world of beautiful cattleyas, brassavolas, and blc combos.

Beautiful orchid! ❤

Beautiful ❤
