DIY Hanging Vanda orchids. Make your own wire hangers

[@Yan-lt6eh]

I wish I had come to your video earlier.. Your idea is economical, smart and effective.. Appreciate your sharing idea generously..

[@katieonlyusernameavailable]

Thanks! I followed your instructions to top my vanda and all going well- loads of new growth, and now I can simply hang my top part up. Great videos :)

[@So.avant.garde1]

Thanks man! I never thought about making my own hangers until watching your vid 👍🏽

[@mainlyvandas214]

Im not paying a ton of money for others to do same.thing lol

[@hugoh.9694]

Awesome info. Sometimes it's the non "professional" growers who know what nuances intimidate the beginner the most. "Non professional growers" are also more effective at reducing things to their most elemental basic level. That was certainly the case with your video. I LOVED it. The sound was a bit off but great info. Definitely thumbs up! 👍

[@jayimeldalim9765]

I like vanda and some orchids too very enjoy to take care 👍😊

[@sandra5997]

Thanks so much, was wondering how I was going to do this today. My hanger will be much improved tomorrow! Keep it simple!

Love your channel. I’m down in Fort Lauderdale and hope to pay you a visit one day

[@irenehill5959]

Thank you for sharing your knowledge on how to make wire hangers for vandas

[@claygresham6906]

Glad i found your channel! i have 8 vandas.

[@marissamaharaj304]

some of these wire hangers are expensive and the baskets also, yep make it yourself, ive also used wire clothes hangers too.

[@JasperPaulBenedict]

Thank YOU! the vanda baskets and pots are difficult to come by in my area. Now I have another option, aside from mounting them on trees or "drift wood".

[@senoritadennis1206]

Your videos are very informative I'm interesting in making my wire hangers, I would like to know the gauge you used. 👍

This is genius!

Nice sharing !!

[@leajohnston5772]

Just viewed the video, very helpful. BUT cannot find the acoustical ceiling tie wire - Home Depot or Lowe's, even Google. Is that the actual name? Thanks

How can you make the 4 leg hangers

[@allangalleon765]

What kind of wire you are using? I want to make...tnx

[@maryannsaja4744]

Yepppp.. Exited to go home., Want to try it with my newly purchased vanda,. But in my case here in philippines we don't have a ceiling wire available in hardwares.. Is there any other wire i can use?

[@mainlyvandas214]

Maybe a strong coat hanger will.work. or wire used to secure chain link fencing.

[@maryannsaja4744]

@@mainlyvandas214 hi!., im happy of the result to my new vandas., i find a great deal on a hardware store a a tie wire #14., thank you so much for sharing your knowledge about vandas., especialy to newbie like me 😀 looking forward for more hacks that can help my vandas to grow more beautiful . More powers

[@robynmorris2969]

Maybe I missed this but...do you have to use the basket for vandas? Can I just hang straight on the hanger like the first one you did?

[@mainlyvandas214]

You do not have to utilize a basket, however, depending on your vanda type, you may need to. Some do better than others when attached to a basket or something similar...

[@robynmorris2969]

@@mainlyvandas214 How will I know the difference? I just bought my first vanda and not sure of the difference between those that need a basket and those that don't.

[@carmencitakatigbak6510]

Excellent! I truly appreciate your diy method of hanging vandas. My dilemma is how long a wire to cut for my miniature vandas, the tallest of which is only 6 1/2" tall. Can you let me know of your reference guide for the length of the wires?

[@mainlyvandas214]

Hello, it really all depends on how high or low you want your plant to hang. I would say the hanger portion is at most 6 inches when bent. The plants I have hanging on the highest horizontal pole are the longest, as I don't want them to burn if too high in greenhouse. Others are only 12 inches because I have them hanging on other pots.

[@carmencitakatigbak6510]

Thank you. Because I have miniature vandas, I was able to use artistic soft wires instead of the hanging tile wires you demonstrated. Great idea learned from you. Much appreciated.

Hi. My Sanderiana has barely any roots and I just don’t know what’s up with her. What should I do to grow healthier roots on her? Thanks.

[@diannh2894]

Try maxicrop liquid fertilizer... Works wonders

[@mainlyvandas214]

Pictures of the plant will help determine what may be the issue. You can email us [e-mail] if you would like

[@juaqucesgirblais752]

he’s cute

[@lkasdlf]

Thanks. Love the information! I live in NY and have my Vanda's in the home without a pot. I was spraying every day but the roots died :( I think they needed more water or maybe I burned them with fertilizer? Anyway, I think I am going to soak them from now on and this hanger will help a lot! If I can, I would love to suggest you get a simple, cheap, microphone. I think it will up the professional feel to go along with your knowledge. Keep up the good work~ www.amazon.com/gp/product/B076F5W8Q5/ref=oh_aui_search_detailpage?ie=UTF8&psc=1

[@mainlyvandas214]

This species is difficult to grow in my opinion. You may need to hang it a little bit lower and add some Moss to the pot to add moisture make sure you are fertilizing regularly

[@coypeahen]

Mainly Vandas hi. Thanks for the reply. However, between 6 months ago and now, the plant just never took off. And I dumped her for a better , healthier sample of the same. I have realized some superb success with adding moss the pot. Some really healthy roots.
