Love your video. As a new orchid grower, I have learned so much! Thank you!❤

[@hollyentwife]

Thank you! This is great! I tend to buy at IKEA and Home Depot and the can only house them well for like 6 months. Then it's basically no blooms ever again...just a bunch of large leaves all over my house. I need to shop online on in my local nursery but they rope me in! This will help me greatly!!

[@juliadandy6019]

“Even stressed orchids can bloom” is a very inspirational sentence hahahha Have been trying to take better care of my orchids and love your channel! Thank you for all the videos and help!

[@hydijvvuuren783]

Thanks Danny very helpful but sometimes I want to look behind your hand just to look at your beautiful orchids. I learn a lot feom you. Keep well

[@andreinabelloso]

Omg!!! Thank you, thank you, thank you for this video!!! Now I know what I am doing wrong... thank you Danny. Love your videos!!!!

[@lolcatz88]

I live in the southern hemisphere (Australia) and my Phalaenopsis flower in winter. Leaves all summer and then flower spikes developed late autumn. My first bud opened this week and it’s still winter.

[@rocco011305]

Wow!! 33 orchids spiking im excited for you. I currently have 2 and I’m so excited I look at them everyday to make sure I’m not seeing thing LOL. It’s my first reblossom so it’s a big deal for me. Thx as I’ve learned so much from you

[@themikefrog97XD]

I've kept my no-name phal in bloom/bud for 8 months thanks to your care tips!

[@diegocast199717]

Yay! Complex hybrids! I know, I know I am not perfect 🙈🙈🙈 Edit: and yes! It would be nice to have the cascade spike once again in your channel!! ;)

[@jaybudd1617]

Congratulations on all your spikes! As for mine I do have some recovering phalaenopsis orchids,also some keikis which I didn't expect to spike. But the few others I have expected to spike but didn't. In fact the only one that did spike and currently blooming is a discounted one I purchased this summer. It was one of those that was subjected to being dyed into color. Now I have a beautiful white phalaenopsis orchid.

[@krzysztofkopaczewski4319]

Congratulations:) all the phals will make a remarkable show:-) Absolutely beautiful set up for phalaenopsis! Well done Daniela❤️

[@kathleenpoole1664]

Thank you for your videos on orchids.I have a Phal that I received as a gift 13 months ago. It has continued to bloom from the original flower spike. It is growing new roots but no new leaves or flower spikes. Should I continue to let it bloom or is it time to cut the flower spike and let is regenerate? I have learned so much from you. I got one of my oncidium orchids to bloom recently after several years of no blooms.

[@miasamanthawright1203]

Love this video coz i only got phalaenopsis orchids collection.

[@lornablackmore2470]

Love your videos Danny, well timed as well! Also worth mentioning the age of the Phal too maybe? I know some flower very young but others need to be a bit older, like for keikis or if you buy a young plant from a nursery for example. But obviously this doesn't apply to shop bought orchids which are what most folk have. Anyway, thanks again!

[@susanmiller716]

Hi Danny, I'm definitely going to try lowering the temp to trigger some more spikes on my phals. Thanks for sharing helpful tips and tricks!

[@jessicacarter5606]

Love ❤️ the video love the cascade gorgeous ! The information very well given thanks very much I am really now confident that my Phals will do great 👍

[@j.d.8075]

Every single genus currently in my collection is stressed even the native Dendrobiums... we are currently experiencing a heatwave and two of my Phals have seed pods ~ so fingers are crossed they hold on and mature normally.

[@kathihutton7173]

Thank you for this video. As a novice orchid grower, nearly half of my collection is what I call "grocery store phals" - the unnamed impulse buys from chain stores. This advice is just what I needed. As an aside, can you do a video about humidity levels, or point me to a link if you have already done one? I am in a temperate climate (Ohio, USA) and in winter time, the house gets so dry. I am struggling to keep the humidity up in my plant room (Orchids and African violets.)

[@MissOrchidGirl]

Hi, these orchids are not picky about humidity. Ideal levels are over 40%, but lower levels are ok too, just make sure to water them in time :)

[@TY-ob7fz]

Hi Danny. Taking about phalaenopsis and underneath a desk ... Somewhere I heard that in order to maximize the length of the flower spike to do so. Put the phal underneath a desk so that the spike might reach harder towards light. Myth busted. The only result I've gotten is two wilted leaves which was quite impressive having ten before. Oh well two down and eight to go.

[@AnaHernandez-cm9xt]

13:40 what I do every day whith my orquides.. jejeje counting the floral spikes! 😍

[@Bakanello]

Hi Dani! I love your videos and they've helped me heaps with my first and beloved phalaeonopsis. After snipping its three spikes post-bloom following lengthy research, I had been waiting and fertilizing the roots patiently waiting for new spike growth. Lo and behold, one very healthy spike emerged a few weeks ago! I'm so pleased with this new growth - I'm wondering if it is going to be followed by other spikes. In your experience, do phalaeonopses re-grow spikes in the same number they originally came with? Would new spikes grow all at the same time, or follow one another? How long shall I wait for the new spikes? Looking forward to your reply. As always, thank you!!!!

[@Stacyahmad99]

I love the double pots that you have under your IKEA lights. Where can I get these pots. Also i had slotted pots for my Phals and the roots grew through the pot slots. I needed to repot but i had to cut all the new growth of in order to get them out. How do you repot in slotted pots with roots growing out? What is the point of slotted pots if you have to cut them all off in order to repot? I bought non slotted pots from repotme along with the imperial Monterey orchid media.

[@eglejonauskiene6220]

Wow it will look amazing, when they bloom :) My singolo also in bloom. Cant not wait to see these huge white flowers :)

[@carpediem.9]

I have two phals in spike :) but very excited about both one is the chocolate drop and the 2nd is the singolo which I bought with a single flower and a cut spike, now it gave me branched out spikes I am very excited to see if the blooms will maintain the same size. Dany can you do a vid your single? I remember you were experimenting on it as well :)

I seem to be having a problem with nats flying around my orchid I am a first time grower of orchids how can I resolve this your help is greatly appreciated thank you

[@Ceanna]

All of my healthy phals are growing roots and multiple leaves, but no spikes. These are the non set back ones. I give them food, light, check on them daily, and give them cool temps at night. I've been doing that for a while. Could it also be the timing they were forced onto when I bought them? For example, if they were forced into spike off season then that means they are still off season?

[@lindak.bridges9195]

Lovely!

[@emmelyjosephineandersen8520]

Mine are beginning to make flowers. Now. It's beginning to be vinter in Danmark

[@lorrainewheeler1424]

I am sad, my orchid hasn’t bloomed in months, I’ve had it for about 3 years, it’s always bloomed year round and stunned a few people but now, no new spikes for the blooms. I’m very confused because I’m doing what I’ve always done. Any ideas?

[@annie8995]

Wonderful video on reblooming orchids!! I have a question on reblooming dendrobium novelty orchid. I recently water with lots of water my dendrobium (In bark medium) by accident when they should be in winter rest. Does that mean I will not get any blooms when winter is over?

[@proequine1]

How long of a cool down?

Any tips on encouraging a phal with a terminal spike to produce keikis? Or will I just have to hope that she has a sense of self preservation? Thanks :-)

[@sancharighosh1724]

Hi Danny, is your Phal. Schilleriana also blooming? Does it need a colder night time temp compared to other fall/spring blooming phals?

[@deannmcdermott7771]

Approximately how many hours do you have the Tertial lamps on each day for your phals?

I have my Phalaenopsis in a west window they get plenty of light and some sun, my windows are tinted but I still can not get them to bloom. I water once a week in winter. I live in Florida, what am I doing wrong. It has been chilly down in the 60's for a few weeks.

[@sarassara4343]

Hi danny, my phalaenopsis orchid is having trouble.. i wanna repot it ... but he still have his flower spike full of healthy flowers .. do i cut off the flower spike b4 repot it ? Or straight repot it with not cutting the healthy flower spike

[@KAMJKJ]

I started collecting novelty phals now 2 sure it will be 20😎 I hope so

[@trangson998]

The red and white orchid that’s on display, do you have a name for her?

[@bluepepper5488]

Ok, so I saw this toutorial that is supposed to help promote good roots, I just watering thiugh, nothing fancy. They take the pot and fill it and let it sit with the orchid in the pot for ten minutes, and let It drain. How often should this be done? Once a week, or just when it seems extra dry? I have a philanapsus from wegmans, but I have had it for a year, will a change in watering effect my orchid to much and kill it? I really love my orchid, and want to take care of it properly. Please help!

[@matthewcondon1985]

Saw that #MissOrchidGirl answered your question in today's video...not sure it your question was clear enough for her to properly answer it. I'm wondering if the tutorial you saw was using tea to soak the orchid? Some people use tea to trigger new roots. Can you share the link to the tutorial?

[@mourningstar1142]

Hello :) What media do you have your Phals on in those red pots? is it some kind of baked clay?

[@christinalai967]

Could you please do the same video for cattleya? :)

[@tenchuu007]

Miss, what's the plant out of focus on the right at about 5:35? Looks too bushy for an orchid, just wondering what it is.

[@sharonmarshallswift5360]

You are going to have a lovely show with 33 spikes! :) Out of curiosity, did the phals that were on the bottom shelf under the southern window grow any leaves while you had them there? You are right, it does look pretty dark there today.

[@MissOrchidGirl]

Hi, yes they did, new leaves on Phals always appear glossier than the rest :)

[@sharonmarshallswift5360]

@@MissOrchidGirl Phals seem to be so hardy. My apartment is pretty low light because it faces east-northeast and there is a row of pine trees about 30 feet away. One of my new phals is growing a new leaf, but I wasn't sure whether to take that as a sign or not that they were getting enough light. I am most likely going to set up my grow light that I usually use for vegetable seedlings this winter for some of my higher light plants and I think I may just move them there. I don't really want them to flower, since they just finished and winter is just starting here...most don't have the space anyway...but I do want to optimize growth for them and give them the best conditions. Thanks for the info., Danny! :)

[@janetwilliams9257]

Can I get a store bought phalaenopsis to rebloom

[@oishd6077]

I have a phal which is not spiking yet even though the temperatures have been below 18 C for the past month and a bit(Its been down to 7C for the last week's nights). I recieved it in spike last year in April, so i cannot say that i have a lot of experience with it. Is it normal for some complex hybrids to spike later when spring starts. I hypothesize that the hybrid may have a summer blooming ancestor. And the phal is really good and healthy the newer leaves are still being bigger and bigger plus it is still growing vegetatively but a little problem is - the newroots stop growing as soo as they reach 2 cm length or so. And i think the plant is getting a bit too much of light. Please help! 😊

[@oxigen85]

At flower shops they "trick*" them to bloom in time so they can sell them. If they are sold (in bloom) in spring/summer, then they are likely to hop over their usual winter blooming since it's too tight for them to bloom again, they need to grow leaves and gather energy, nutrients. Even if it doesn't bloom this year, it will surely rebloom next year :)

[@jack-of-all-tradesmaster-o6097]

Hey Danny I have a quick question about leca. Now is it permanent, as in you "never" have to change it and disturb the roots or do you still change it just not as often as you would the best quality of sphagnum moss (possibly 1 year)

[@MissOrchidGirl]

Hi, no I don't change it :) the only thing I might change are the top beads if they accumulate algae, which doesn't really happen, only happened to me once. There might be other instances where, after years, leca might need changing or cleaning, but I did not experience it yet :)

[@jack-of-all-tradesmaster-o6097]

@@MissOrchidGirl Ok, thank you that helps. Do you have a brand that you like and recommend?

[@seabellesam]

Am downsizing and would like to repot my Phals with two plants in one pot. Any advice????

[@MissOrchidGirl]

Hi, I cannot recommend potting orchids with other plants, very few are actually compatible. It is also easy to transfer disease so, all I can advise would be to use the appropriate size pots and not do multiple plant arrangements. Good luck!

[@samanthasager9292]

SAMANTHA so sorry. I meant putting 2 phals together😊

[@MissOrchidGirl]

Hi, yes they can be grown together if they have enough space for both root systems, but the disease transfer cans till happen. It will also be very hard to untangle the roots if you'll want to separate them. Phals can produce a lot of roots actually and you'll need quite a big pot to fit both of them if they are standard Phals, so think about all these things first :)

[@seabellesam]

@@MissOrchidGirl Thank you for coming back to my question. I will think about it. Appreciate your advice!!!

Finally I got my video on time

[@nitawal]

I live in colder Canada. That being said I get the desired night temperatures in the Spring and also in the fall. Can I get them to bloom in either season?

[@ventia7297]

As for my experience, they will be prompted to bloom during fall and through winter. Some will be prompted during spring, but less. I can't say for all of them, but at least half of my phals are following this patern in eastern canadian weather :)

[@priscillahiguita3939]

Hi, I am in Canada as well. I have my phals for about 5 years now and they have never rebloom.

[@rorygk]

Hi Danny! I wanted to ask, what does it mean if my DenPhal has yellowing leaves... pretty much ALL of them, I know it doesn't need a winter rest. I know this is unrelated to this video, but I've been trying to figure out how to contact you for some advice. Thanks in advance!
