Default Hello everyone.

Hi all,

Thought I would come over and visit for awhile from Slippertalk. I see allot of familiar names here too!

Besides loving my orchids I also love to take pictures of them to treasure later when they are out of bloom.

Nice to see everyone!

Dee

Oh yes, a little bit of everything! Catt's, Phal's, Miltoniopsis, Paph's and a few others. I grow under lights in my home so I am limited but so far I think it's somewhere around 300 plants, but who is counting!

Hi Dee, welcome to the OB.

What types of lights are you growing under? Fluorescents here - soon to be HID!

I have allot of 4' x 4 tube fluorescents and a dual 500 watt fixture (250 & 250) over the main bench in the main room which faces south, so I also get allot of natural light flitered with sheer curtains. Then in another room a 400 watt HID, then in another room a bunch of racks with 4' x 2 tube fluorescents. Good thing the house is a good size or the orchids would take it over totally.
