[@1jsolano]

Your wife is a good woman. My wife would never let me have a set up like that. Everything has to be displayed in a nice way in our house. Happy wife happy life is one one of the most accurate sayings out there.

[@growproteas1148]

Yeah my wife doesn't love my setup but lets me keep it...

Probably one of the best videos on indoor orchid growing using led grow lights I have ever seen. 🤗 Includes much more than just lightning. Thank you. 👍 I hope you will find the time to make more videos about your orchids. You are really good at it.

[@growproteas1148]

Ikr?!

[@roseumana4979]

I can’t believe how many flowers you have on your miltoniopsis plants. They are gorgeous! I’m jealous!

[@growproteas1148]

Thanks... this year had even more flowers.. I water 2x per week..

[@wmatos68]

I used to water mines ones a week and their leaves started to turn yellow and the roots started to rotten. Im going to try a different medium and lighting.

checked out viparspectrum light, expensive and i need one on a stand, mine are in my bedroom 😀, mine has 4 lil blue bulbs and few reds but mostly white, will see how it goes

[@leet0809]

I really like the moisture idea with the trays although I couldn't do it in the apartment setting. Wish there's more elegant solution.

[@growproteas1148]

thanks - makes life easy watering

[@harleyinred]

thank you, so very imformative and helpful, i just added a led grow light mostly white light full spectrum, yes no hear yay

Sorry I bought it locally...

Hi this is an amazing video, and deserves 100x the views! I grow in a south facing window with very bright light and grow Phalaenopsis species/novelty hybrids/primary hybrids so they require more light than complex hybrid phals. A week ago I got some LED's because winter just doesnt cut it with 9.5 hour day lengths here in NY. I had a question regarding the PPFD, some of my phals under the lights get around 80-110PPFD which I think should be fine but if some get around 200PPFD for higher light requiring phals like bellina/gigantea, do you think I'll face a problem down the line? Or is that range fine if its a higher light requiring Phal? Thank you so much for this amazing video, new sub here!!

[@growproteas1148]

thanks! I do have some of my phals at 200 ppfd so I think you will be fine!

[@JM-nw8ej]

Great video, I keep coming back to it. What is the name of the red lycaste?

[@growproteas1148]

the red lycaste is my favorite and is blooming again right now - unfortunately I lost the name tag -

[@JM-nw8ej]

@@growproteas1148 Unfortunate! It's beautiful, enjoy. I don't find them for sale often, is the only problem.

[@flowerlover-fd5zv]

it's impressive!

[@vanschermerhorn7167]

I'm running out of room and I need lights for my plants . Watching your video you said to buy a white light . I was looking at purple , blue, and red . I'm just starting so I need help . Do you soak your orchids ? Maybe you can send me a message on the lighting you use , name brands , where by it . Did you say you bought the black trays , white grid , and stands from Lowes ? thank you for your presentation , it was very helpful . Hope to here from you because I just starting and hope to start out right .

[@growproteas1148]

pretty much any white grow light on amazon will work... no I don't soak the orchids - just water until drenched - let the water run through the pot...

[@koolkol009]

wow, amazing. Common American family!

[@growproteas1148]

thanks

[@lornagotuaco]

I just started growing orchids. So far i have 15 pots of phalaenopsis, 7pots catleya and 5 dendrobium. I still have to learn more of how to grow them properly. I am from philippines and its very hot here so i keep them inside the house.

[@growproteas1148]

Wonderful

[@plantyhappyandneedcoffee]

When you mention "grow stone" do you mean pumice?

[@growproteas1148]

it is actually called grow stone - but yes similar to pumice
