Default so many tiny flasklings...

Okay, I have my babies that are in the betta bowl with the wet sphagnum, the high humidity, these were the larger pieces that I felt would do the best.

As I had so many of them and could not squeeze them into the betta bowl and their pots with the others, I decided to experiment, I have a good bit of them in a 3in net pot with orchid moss next to the betta bowl nothing else, nothing to help it keep up the extra humidity nothing. I also have a bowl of sphagnum, with orchid moss in a net basket with baby flasklings on top of that as well in my kitchen partially in a ziplock bag in a window that gets some dappled morning sun that comes through my oak tree limbs

They have yet to die, tomorrow marks a full week of having them. All so far as I can tell are happy and healthy...I figured my experiments would have died...if these live and continue to thrive I will have A LOT of babies to give away.

PS IF I CAN GROW FLASKLINGS MY FIRST SHOT OUT AND NOT KILL THEM IN A WEEKS TIME ANYONE CAN!!

the picture is all of them together. I noticed in my betta bowl one is flipped upside down and is still growing happy roots. oy vay.

My ipad will not allow multiple pictures to load at once so i have do do this one at a time.

This is a top shot of all three growing types, the ones in the betta bowl kinda cheated because they were the larger seedlings to begin with lol.

Im glad I got to plant a few thousand for someone else ...

I was so sick of them rootless wonders coming out of the agar sludge I was starting to throw em in the trash can

Good luck with them all. I have bought orchids just out of flask but never bought an entire flask. Sounds fun just to see what variety you will get in the flowers. I find it very rewarding to raise orchids from small seedlings. I hope you will keep us posted.
