Orchid Projects Updates - Specimen Cattleya, Neofinetia, Tolumnia & more!

[@MissOrchidGirl]

I said in the video that I will talk about the ebay seller, but I will make a separate video actually, waiting for the saga to be over. You can actually find out the story if you check my community tab and scroll down a bit to the story. Update for those who already know: did not resolve anything yet, think I lost my money :(

[@Shaghaf.koriel]

MissOrchidGirl Hello I have dendrobium nobile and the roots look totally dead but the sticks are still green and viable What should I do? Can I save it pls

[@eliankaison7472]

I know it's kinda off topic but do anybody know a good website to watch new tv shows online?

[@moslemhindawe8172]

Thank you very much, Danny. You are helping us a lot

[@bobirceaveronica]

An Nou Fericit, plin de realizari, sanatate si putere de munca ! :) Ma bucur sa vad ca Neofinetia creste ! Abia astept sa vad si update pentru Zygopetalum !

[@TY-ob7fz]

Hi Danny Merry Christmas and Happy and Healthy New Year, to you and Mr, family and all in this community. Hopefully you'll get your Neo-F going and to bloom. My one and only purchased two years ago was a midget when purchased and with a little babying didn't wither like my many phals. Have tripled if not more in size and the purple root tips are enchanting, as is my vanda. Enjoy the season and looking forward to your postings after the new year holidays. Have fun with family and friends !!! Spring is coming and looking forward to your thoughts on preparations. ♥️

[@jaybudd1617]

I hope you have a Happy New Year Danny. Çontinued success in growing orchids and inspiring us to Branch out to grow different orchids multiple ways.

[@poples5799]

Ahhh your doves are /hilarious/!! It's so funny having them laugh at you, and you sniding back at them! Also, would love a video on the laelias when you decide to repot them (and with an update on how they do in their new medium compared to this). Have a Happy New Year!

[@joananderson7446]

Love the Doves with your videos! So far I only grow phals and one cat. You tempt me to try others. Thank you for all the information you share!

[@travelorchidslondon]

Hi again ☺ By the way I use stones from the seaside. I soak them in the water to get rid of the salt, changing the water couple of times and then sterile them in the oven at 180C. Once cooled they are ready to use 😁

[@patsfreund9164]

Loved seeing your Neofinitias and Tolumnias. They are both doing well. My Tolumnias which are now 2 year old plants are beginning to grow well. Yes, I would like for you to do that experiment with the laelias. Thanks for your videos.

[@allyyyyyyp]

happy new year Dani!! Wishing you the best in 2020...and many thick orchid roots :)

[@MissOrchidGirl]

Happy New Year full of awesome Orchids! ❤️

[@elvishmaiden689]

Hello Danny :) Happy *2020* I would like to say a BIG Thank you for all the helpful information about Orchids This is the first time in my life, that I can save my Beautiful plant

[@oliviaekvall4767]

Would love a wishlist orchid video from you, why you want them and why you havent got them already and so on! Also maybe sneak in some more hoya content 🙈

[@kellyduguay3368]

Your tolumnia are so healthy looking, I may try one or two of mine in that potting method, and you are absolutely right about the info on the media....dry dry dry, which makes watering these a nightmare!

[@trixietyrrell3275]

Hi Danni Hope you have a great new year. Looking forward to all your orchid update and new videos .See you in 2020 . Thank you Trixie from Australia

[@travelorchidslondon]

Hi Danny. Happy Christmas and New Year! Yes, please take us along with the Laelias repotting and new set up experiment. You have mentioned german supplier in the video but did not talk about him. Please unveil to us your wish list. Also I want to thank you for a great quality of the videos. Your voice is plesant, the music is not overpowering the video. The subjects are very interesting, the quality of the video is great. And really would like to hear about your Coelogyne usitana. Thanks

[@MissOrchidGirl]

Hi, I decided to make a different video for that, will talk about it! It's thaiorchids and more

[@mayastoyanova3020]

The doves again! 😀 I love them! Recently there hasn't been q and a video. You might consider doing some in 2020. Here's a question : I don't want to flush pots { in bark} with the distilled water that I use for regular watering. My tap water is hard , near 250 ppm. Should I use it for flushing anyway ?

[@monikaweld5567]

Hi Dani, haven't watched your video yet, but wanted to tell you that Laura from Garden Answer just wore a hoodie from MOG 😍❤👏

[@MissOrchidGirl]

Omg just saw! 😍😍😍

[@wandashaw3551]

Would love to see the set up on the lalieas. Maybe some videos on the reed stem epidendrum? Thanks again and Happy New Year. 🌼🌻🌺🌹🏵💮🌸💐🌷

[@tanyastelly6243]

Have a friend that grows his Dendrobiums in pebbles. Cheap peoples from a big box store like Lowe’s or Home Depot. They are all happy and have vigorous root growth. The rest of our orchid society are all in shock and awe.

[@vanessa5637]

Dani ! Do you still do question hour? Or I forgot what it called lol But I wanted to know if having ants settling in my orchid media but not the flowers or anywhere else is something I should be worried about or not! Love your vids :)

[@LifeofAgnes75]

I think it's called Pot.Shinfong Little Sun 'Youngmin Orange’. I'm not sure Dani but I saw it and been eyeing for it to buy cause my husband loves orange color😅

[@TheDanEdwards]

"I think it's called Pot.Shinfong Little Sun 'Youngmin Orange’. " - while the flowers look similar to the plant of that name that Roger Frampton grows, Dani's plant has longer inflorescences, as well as having more uniform psb growth. Now, all that could be down to the differences in culture; still, it is quite difficult to identify an orchid hybrid as so many similar ones have been made, especially G. aurantiaca hybrids.

[@tcvetet9630]

Hi Danny, I enjoy your channel very much and have learned a lot from you. I have some cattleyas that grow in a staircase manner. Is there a good way to deal with this and make them grow in the pot?

[@ryanmetzler2211]

Danny, I fully support your switch back to organic media. I am thinking of doing the same for similar reasons. :-)

[@familhagaudir8561]

7:40 Having a Cattleya that does this too, I would also blame the spots and poor root growth on the "excessive drying", as the rocks switch from a humidity source to a sink rather quickly during sunny days. New roots on mine will just stop growing ( lose their green tip ) because the top layer of moss got dry and resume some weeks later after humidity has been consistently higher. Roots deeper in the mossy medium don't have this problem, but it definetlymcauses a lack of new roots on new pseudobulbs. Same problem on my den.-phals, I now consider repoting them wity slightly burried canes ( some canes already grew burried since purshase years ago with zero rot.)

[@KP-gw5zv]

I am interested in the new setups and the updates of the orchids. Thank you.

[@judithsarcochilus1080]

I think what you should try is lava alone or lava with your river rocks. I do not put my plants in "decorative pots" as I think they do not help in my environment. I love seeing the roots. And mine produce alot of roots. Personally, I would loose the fancy pots and get used to the wild look. But, after thinking a bit, my climate may be much more humid than yours, so my comments might only be relevant to where I live, in the Pacfic NW of North America.... anyways, thanks Danni, for another intersting video

[@christis7414]

what are you using to keep the cattleya at the beginning nice neat and upright? mine is going every which way including horizontally - any suggestions to get it growing in a nice bundle like yours? Thanks.

[@victoriabakhvalova]

I think what people mean by putting laelias in lava rock is: chunky lava rock so that it is airy an dries the next day in summer, to be flushed very often. The roots are the reason - they are difficult. That's what I've been told by the person on instagram who blooms them nicely at least)) I myself have laelia anceps, not the same situation but it is placed in the biggers orchiata bark + churkcoal+growstones and still roots are getting stained and some of root tips die. I should think the way to remove most of the media and replace it with packing peanuts.

[@jaclynlinden9598]

Hey Dani, make that video with the comparison! It would be awesome to see!

[@myataylor4807]

Why didn’t you like the seramis? I’m thinking of adding it to my phals.

[@TrishsOrchidLife]

Please do the lealia experiment

[@SANNISAHIL]

Can you make a video on “How to care for orchid in Monsoon” please

[@KAMJKJ]

Where is the update of live sphagnum moss stuff Danny 😕

[@Justusorjustone]

I don't know 😑😂

[@mak3myda3]

What happened to the dendrobium parishii cane from Bumblebee?

[@minniemouse2742]

Did you mention Orchid Deluxe? Maybe i heard it incorrectly. I found a website which is called Orchid Deluxe, based in the Netherlands. If you indeed bought from them, did you have a good experience? Thanks! I hope you get well soon.

[@MissOrchidGirl]

Hi, yes here is my latest order unboxing from them kzbin.info/www/bejne/eKHMo32nfL6Je68

[@TheDanEdwards]

Not to be a debbie-downer here... but I still suspect you will find those rupicolous Cattleya types to always be a challenge. That you are even getting root growth is encouraging.

[@Justusorjustone]

Any examples??
