V. Robert's Delight 'Midnight Blue'

[AussieVanda]

First time bloomer, still a young plant.

Fertilised 2x a week at half strength, watered heavily every morning and on the hot days a quick water in the afternoon.

Enjoy....

So beautiful and such a healthy plant, Congrats!

Very nice. Will only improve also.
Something I've learnt from some Thai contacts which I've started is they water at least twice a day. They haven't exactly been clear on how often they fertilize. Must be very regular though.

That w/girl, thanks roy! Yeah mine get drowned every morning, I probably should duplicate it in the afternoon as well but trying to keep tabs on how much my water bills are so the afternoon one is only as needed!

As for fertiliser, at the moment I like the twice a week at half strength, I was doing once a week at full strength which I found; (A) wasn't giving me as good as an outcome as what I am doing now, and (B) was a pain in the rear end trying to dissolve twice the amount of fertiliser into the sane sized concentrate container for the injector as to what I need to do now.

I have tank (rain) water only so I have to be triple careful.

What size? As funny as it sounds for tropical north queensland I'm thinking about installing one. My lawn especially has suffered through the dry season.
