Default What a mess. More work for the weary (lazy).

Here's a couple that have been allowed to just do their thing. The last few years I've had waaaaaaay to many orchids to really take care of properly and ....well....I am also very lazy. I sold off most of my collection last year so have fewer to take care of now. So here is the next project. I've had these for years and years and they produce lots of flower spikes. But if I don't do something soon they will really just be dead. So I'll take these apart and take pics of the process for the newbees here. I'll also take the BB's and propagate using the different methods available. We'll see which work and which don't. I'll keep you all posted. Sonya, would this be something to also put on the beginners page? Thanks.

Cool!

I think this forum is a good spot - if others think it should be added to beginners forum, we can do that

I'm watching too. Sounds like a great learning experience! Some of us will just learn vicariously (isn't that a sign of maturity or something ??) . Appreciate the sharing!
