I didn't use any tricks other than taking it out of an old basket full of dead roots then hanging it outside where it gets full sun in the afternoon where I water 2 or 3 times a day and at least 2 of those are with either a high nitrogen urea free or a high phosphate fertilizer and for 3 to 5 days a month I put Epsom salt in the mix

All my Vandas love it I have a Darwinia that is putting out a keiki too


I do have some keikipro but there is no way it got on the Vandas in the backyard. I only use it on the Catt.'s in the bedroom and front porch. When I use it I put 2 drops of the Keikipro in a 1 oz glass bottle then fill it with distilled water and apply the mix with a dropper

I may go mix some up and apply it to some Vandas and see what kind of results I get

It's amazing how fast they grow. I wonder if they flower as younger plants or that they also need years before be able to bloom.

I would imagine they will flower and grow faster then a free standing seedling. They have the leaves and roots of the mother to help them along, but I still expect them to take years to flower.
