I buy standard 5-6" orchid pots, and then go over to Webstaurant store online and find either the Genpak SC032, if they're in stock, or the SC025, which are shorter and doesn't hold humidity as well....

Lycaste cruenta

My Lycaste cruenta that I got from Ecuagenera bloomed. It smells like Pixy Stix candy, actually hitting some of the same notes as the Cycnodes Wine Delight. Which is great, because I've been missing...

I'm not sure that a temperature reduction is not necessary to initiate blooms, but I think it's safe to say that consistent diurnal ranges (e.g. over an entire season) are probably not necessary.

Brent sells tiny plants on his eBay store, at least the Catasetum ones, but I'll keep buying from him because he has species that I couldn't find anywhere else.

Note that the shipment enters tracking when the shipping label is generated. It is "received" when the shipment is picked up or dropped off at USPS and they accept the package.

A bit of an aside, but I can't tell the difference between any of the white/pink Cattleyas or the tan/brown Encyclias (advena, tampensis, etc.). In any picture I've seen, they look exactly the same.

I'm assuming you're ordering from Repotme, which mislabels their MSU fertilizers. The difference, I think, lies in one being more pH neutral, and the other is adjusted for water hardness. In your...
