They're under my albums. Can you access that or do I need to move somewhere? I clicked on ok to be public when I set it up.

I'm not computer savvy but let me know. Or ask Philip as he was able to see them.

Thanks

Just found this discussion but had to write to say thank you to everyone who posted, but especially to Philip King of Orchid Growing. You should consider writing an orchid-centric memoir. You have been so generous and helpful, not only here but in other threads I have found. (Thanks also to Estacion Seca, from whom I have learned so much)

I started reading here, and gradually made changes to my sunroom, where I have been growing phals and miltoniopsis with so-so results. Added a fan and two humidifiers and "hello", blooms and growth! So excited that I just bought three 4-foot LED fixtures to start a basement grow room.

But now, I am going to buy an Encyclia Cochleata.

Thank you!

Keep in mind most Encyclias need more frequent watering than most other plants in the Cattleya alliance. Don't let them go completely dry when making new growth.
