I do have one video that has me unboxing the foggers. It's a few months back by now.

[@BradsGreenhouse]

Hi Britney, I'm in BC, on Vancouver island. Our winters aren't bad here, other than the rain.

[@BradsGreenhouse]

Thanks J! Looks like you have some great fish tanks, watch a couple of your videos yesterday.

[@BradsGreenhouse]

Defiantly one of my favourites, I have about 15 different kinds

[@Jwhiser1302]

Best orchids anywhere! Orchid King strikes again!

[@BradsGreenhouse]

Thanks!

[@BradsGreenhouse]

A few are ready to be repotted, I'm just waiting for the right moment when it's all spikes and no buds or blooms. Slip the plant out, clean it up slip it in a bigger pot, spikes slide back through holes or divide it. Sounds easy....?!? Right?!?

[@Jwhiser1302]

Thanks brother really appreciate that! Would love to turn a fishroom into a greenhouse because I wouldn't have to worry about needing humidity, its finding grow places with all the tanks that is the prob and supplying light.

[@growingnorth]

amazing orchids! Love your setup in the GH!

Hi Brad. Thank you for all of your videos. I especially like this one because I have not been able to find a ton of information on how exactly people cultivate the cool growers. I have always wanted to try a few different Trisetellas, but especially the Tris. Hirtzii. Well I finally found one (I mean four) at a reasonable price while visiting a plant show. My concern is that I live in South Louisiana, and I have no idea how I am going to pull off chilling them during the summer. Yeah...I've really done did it with this one (Don't judge me comment board. If you're a hobbyist you understand that excitement when you see something, and you can't believe they have it; and decide to figure it out afterwards :p ). Atm I am putting a frozen water bottle in the terrarium at night. It helps a little but definitely not even close to the 50's. Our winter temperatures in S. LA should be perfect though. In general for cool growers, if they get cold hours over winter and room temperatures for summer; do you think that will be sufficient? Or do they need those cold hours into the 50's year round? Have you ever grown Trisetella? The few sources that I've found have them listed as cool to intermediate. But other than that I don't see much on how people are keeping the Trisetella in captivity. If you have any advice I would greatly appreciate it. Thank you

How do you achieve the night time drop in temperature? Thanks, great video.

[@growingnorth]

I'm in the southern part of Norway!

[@BradsGreenhouse]

They can be a little tricky, which is why they are fun! Do you have a greenhouse?

[@PlantzNThings]

Sounds Real easy.. Glad i'm not doing it :) i hope you make a video on this when the time comes :)

[@BradsGreenhouse]

Thanks Growingnorth! How far north are you?

[@britorchid]

Hi Brad I wonder which part of the country are you in ,you do have a nice green house ,love it ,I have many rare orchid but because I live in Niagara Fall Canada ,you know it is cold kinda hard to grow them thanks Brittney

[@PlantzNThings]

Hey Brad, How do you repot your draculas that have the bloom spikes coming through the pots? do you remove all flower spikes prior? if so that's sad :( and how long does it usually take for them to generate more bloom spikes?

[@samuellopez968]

hello 👋 greetings from florida Usa, what compost do you use for the Draculas?

[@OctopusInc]

I think you have solved my problem with pointing out that they need to drop temp at night. May I ask specifically about the fertilizer you use, NPK, frequency, dosage, please?

[@BradsGreenhouse]

Very important, without one they would die.

[@cindywengert2202]

Hi Brad, so you showed off a lot of seed pods. Do you cross-pollinate your orchids and grow the seeds? I know it takes a lot of work to grow an orchid from seed.

[@MrBubbl347]

Are the draculas your favourites orchids?

[@johnsonjae]

What do you do with the seed pods for your draculas? Do you flask them yourself? I'm just getting back into Orchids after a few years, and have thought it would be fun to cross a couple of draculas to keep in my personal collection, and was curious how tedious it was to grow these from seed?

[@orchidsplz24]

no i do not i wish i did. if i did my plant swould be much happier. but heye are fine on the window ledge. =)

[@Scrunchy05]

Where did you get your netted pots from?

[@resquetzal1820]

Love the video. Certainly convinced me that I have to stay away from the Draculas, not because they aren't lovely but I just can't grow these in my livingroom. Just a question. Did you purposely pollinate the flowers to have seed pods? You're keeping them on the plant because you want the mature seeds? If not, any other reason to keep them on? Thanks so much for the great videos and advice.

[@BradsGreenhouse]

I do a seed swap with someone for other rare seeds,

[@resquetzal1820]

***** how do you know when the seed pods are mature?

[@BradsGreenhouse]

experience really. that grow and change shape and I know it takes 4-6 months to mature

[@thien-ngole3056]

Do you have them for sale? Thanks!

[@lindawatson3284]

Hi Brad: you say you water your Draculas 3 to 4 tines a week, but if they are always in high humidity aren't they always somewhat wet? Being in such constant high humidity, can they ever really dry out? Thanks.

[@BradsGreenhouse]

Yup they still dry out, my floor and everything is dry unless im watering

[@BradsGreenhouse]

You will have trouble if your not a few thousand meters high I would think.

[@orchidsplz24]

i dont think i can grow draculas

[@chatbud]

:( :( :( None of these will grow well here in the tropics
