I'll trade your knowledge for knowledge. If you show me how to do the thumbnails I'll show you how to do the larger pictures. I'm only half joking.

One, as in a single pseudobulb. I have gone down the rabbit hole of specialist growers 'lists' of available crosses and divisions and also 'single'. I interpret that as a single backbulb.

That is way above the $150.00 threshold for purchase without CFO approval. Not happening. I will have to get my buzz some other (legal) way.
