Default My growing area

Well we're all moved into our new place and my area has been 'roughed' in down in the basement. Its not there yet but just nailed up some panel boards to see if it will be big enough. It'll never be big enough but it will do for now. Maybe I can grow some of those cool growers. Thanks for looking.

I vote for doubling the size (doesn't look big enough to me)

I don't do most Dendros or large, "floofy orchids". For me it's minis (like Angraecoides), Masdies, Paphs, and others that crept in somewhere along the line. See my orchid list for complete collection (usually not current.)

With a little planning, you'll be able to get lots of 'chids into that space
Looking forward to update pics along the way

I agree with Ross, and vote for doubling the size! Just kidding. I admire you guys that work hard and grow orchids in any space, any weather, despite snow, cold etc. Congrats, sincerely!

Looks nice and still plenty of extra space. But the space is a very strange thing - it dissapears very quickly

Looking good, a little spartan but I'm sure that won't last long

What do plan to do about waterproofing? If you are doing any sort of spraying or if the humidity is quite high is there any possibility of it damaging the plywood or ceiling?

Yeah I have over 100 but in a bigger space it does look a little thin
