Lori Fulton

Everything is beautiful. Your room is lovely. I have Everything hanging in my mango tree but I'm going to have to install something for shading to spread them out in the garden. I only bring them in when in bloom. Love your channel I'm learning a lot

I need a close up of your Vanda in growing medium I’ve got mine hanging on my bathroom door ???!

Jeanne Luddeni Hi Jeanne! I don't grow my orchids in media, I grow them in semi water culture in glass vases. I have a Vanda Day Video, publish date Sept 20, 2017 that details how I care for them and the setup. Happy New Year to you and your family! :)

Good morning! I appreciate seing your use of utility tables as pedestals/stands around this room. I see the wisdom in using them for easy movement and positioning. I cannot count how many ideas your displays and tutorials have given me. Thank you again! God bless and keep you and yoru family in 2018! Date: December 28, 2017

Orchid Whisperer

Hello, my friend! It's always great hearing from you! :) These tables are ideal, they really are easy to work with. Thanks always for watching and for your sweet comments! Have a blessed and wonderful New Year!

Barb Townsend

I love your Harlequin phaleanopsis, Amy! Always a joy to see your beautiful orchids!

Orchid Whisperer

Thank you so much, Barb! Always wonderful hearing from you, my friend! :) Happy New Year to you and your family! :)

I'm lucky I've never sunburned my leaves. I get east, east south light and recently added LED to give them just an extra push. Great video ♥

Beautiful display or orchids.Happy New Year!

Orchid Whisperer

Hi Eduardo...thank you so much! Happy 2018!

JinxedKaetzchen

Thank you so SO much for this! I just got 2 cattleya's and 2 Dendrobium's and have had no clue where to put them. I wish I had a room full of windows like you do! I have mostly southern windows. I'm able to keep foliage growing, but still no blooms :( I'm wondering if I should change their medium as I'm worried they aren't getting enough water as their pseudobulb's seem shriveled :\ I'm new to these and have mostly Phal's.

Orchid Whisperer

Hi and thanks so much for watching! If you're in the winter months where you live, I would wait till Spring to repot...that's when you get root growth. It took the blooming Dens in this video over a year to bloom, and some of them still haven't. So give it plenty of time. They're acclimating to their environment. Have a great day and happy growing! :)

aydin and mysha ridaa

Hi Orchid Whisperer, my seedling dendrobium phal are facing north windowsill...will it be fine...I have in water culture

aydin and mysha ridaa

Orchid Whisperer thank u so much

Orchid Whisperer

Hi Shaima! It depends on if your northern windowsill gets light. They do need some bright, indirect sunlight to grow, like an eastern facing window that gets early morning (not hot afternoon) sunlight. Thanks for watching and happy growing! :)

Mary Helgesen

Your last orchid is a magic art

Caroline

I think it's wonderful how you are able to utilize all of your windows, even the western facing ones. I guess it took a little bit of trial and error to figure out the best spot for each orchid? And a big THANK YOU for the close-up of your beautiful mini dendrobium! 😊

Orchid Whisperer

That's a wonderful name! Any orchid would be proud to have a name like that! :)

Caroline

Orchid Whisperer I have a nephew that is very dear to me but I don't know how a grown man would feel about having an orchid named after him, lol! His wife's name is Brooke...how about "Brooke's Beauty?" 🌸

Orchid Whisperer

3y↑1

I like those names! They make me smile!:) Happy to have inspired you, Caroline...I believe we inspire each other, my friend! :)

Caroline

I think I'm going to name one of mine "Jamie's Joy" after my 13-year-old niece. Another one will be named after "Mia" my other niece, who is 10...maybe "Mia's Delight?" Now, see! You have inspired me! :)

Orchid Whisperer

I understand totally what it's like to have a kitchen table full of orchids...and no place to eat except the coffee table in the den! haha! That's what I call happiness! lol! I like naming my orchids after people who are dear to me...that's how most of mine get nicknames! :) That will be a fabulous winter project, can't wait to hear what you come up with! Have a happy, sunny day my friend!

Hi Amy, Beautiful orchids your very fortunate to have so many windows. We only have Northern and Southern windows in our home. My orchids don't do well at all in our Southern windows. I have all my phalaenopsis orchids in Northern windows. Our foyer room has Southern and Northern windows. I keep 5 phalaenopsis orchids out there. My other 8 phalaenopsis orchids are in a our T.V. room which has a great big bumped out window with two windows on each side of the big window. Best regards from Michigan. Any advice would be Greatly appreciated.

Roxanne Parker

Orchid Whisperer Thank you Amy for the Advice. Roxanne

Orchid Whisperer

Hi Roxanne! If your orchids are growing well, then they're probably receiving enough light, especially if they're getting light from both Southern and Norther windows. I know some of my subscribers who live around Michigan use grow lights, especially in the winter. You might check into that if you're thinking they need more light. You can check with local orchid growers to see what they recommend, or your local American Orchid Society chapter. Happy growing! Amy

Hi Amy. My medium cat has foliages that stard to shriveled to you know why ...?

Sophie

Orchid Whisperer ok Amy thank you😘

Orchid Whisperer

The canes do grow very quickly, and that's a good sign! That's where your new blooms will emerge from this year. Keep me posted and have a great day! :)

Sophie

Orchid Whisperer i saw only one i killed him. when i repoted it in SM (i think it was one this one) i saw another one and i mentionned it to thé producer. The new canne is very big and grows fast is it normal ? the others are like stagnant. Thank you Amy i ll let you know. have a great WE💋

Orchid Whisperer

Hi Sophie! If you're getting a new cane and it grows at least as large as the others, then it's probably going to be fine. You mentioned insects...are they all gone now? It's hard to get rid of them sometimes, and they can damage an orchid in no time. Just keep an eye on it, and hopefully it will start growing. Keep me posted and have a great day! :)

Sophie

Hi Amy. This cat is my first. I bought in internet from a producer. When it came it was i can say a more small than medium size, the leaves were "hard" but the rots weird they were brownish and dry one insect was running lol the canes very thick.
I send a mail they told me that say cared about, the orchid was healthy... i waited my Nz SM. I cutted a those few rots.
Since i started fertilizing in saw first like a canne but not like the other ones a bigger one a weird canne because it s big and new rots, but... the bottom is purple and her rots purple. And the leaves are starting to shrivell a little but still green. May be this canne took the leaveq energy i don t know...
And one of my mini phal that have blooms and still blooming the end of her spike the small buds, purple.
I am sure it has something with fertilizer i don know..

Very good advice. When people talk about light some think there kitchen florescent light is sufficient. Thank you professor. Happy New Year 🎉🎇🎊

So my light source is not direct...it’s indirect source of light...sunlight comes in the balcony but it doesn’t reach my orchids...is it ok?

Orchid Whisperer

Hi Jack! I've had so many growers ask me about light recently...and light is a huge topic! But when you buy a phal, it says, "Low Light" on the tag, and that's pretty misleading. (You do think of your kitchen light!:) oh my, "professor" haha! Happy New Year, my friend!

Jane Howard

HI MISS AMY...[SORRY FOR THE CAPS. SHOULDER SURGERY ON THE RIGHT SIDE ALMOST 80% NOW HAD BONE REMOVAL ON MY L THUMB..].ANY WAY DO YOU SET YOUR ORCHIDS OUTSIDE AT ALL? I'VE SEEN SOME PEOPLE PUT THEIR FWC/SWC PLANTS OUTSIDE... I LIVE IN HARDINESS ZONE 9b.

Overthemoon

Jane Howard ..fyi..u can release the CAP lock on keyboard with just 1 finger..:)
Hope u heal soon...

Orchid Whisperer

2y↑1

Hi Jane! No problems with the caps, I just hope you're doing well after your surgery. I don't set my orchids outside. I live in a woodland forest and we have hundreds of birds that visit our back yard in a day...squirrels, chipmunks, rabbits, deer, foxes, geese, eagles...and the list goes on. The squirrels would have great fun carrying off my orchids, and the deer would eat the blooms. Also, mosquitoes would definitely be an issue with having water culture orchids outside. I had a friend who had mosquito larvae swimming around in her WC. So to be safe, mine are all inside. :) Have a great day and happy growing! :)

Roxanne Parker

Hi Amy, I was wondering do you keep a fan going 24/7 on your orchids no matter the season. Thank you in Advance Roxanne

Orchid Whisperer

Hi Roxanne! Yes, I keep a fan going 24/7, no matter the season. Happy growing! :) Amy

Terry Klemesrud

Beautiful blooms!!! May I ask you what your high and low temps are in your room? Thanks!!!

Orchid Whisperer

Terry Klemesrud These are the temps in my grow room...with 2 heaters going. Outside temps yesterday...the high was 27 degrees and last night was 15! Still not as cold as where you live, but cold! :)

Terry Klemesrud

Wow!! You are warm there in Tennessee. We are in the single digits and below zero this weekend!!! Happy New Year!!!

Orchid Whisperer

Hi Terry and thank you so much! :) The high temps during the winter can get up to 75 degrees on sunny days with 2 heaters set on 74...the low last night was 66 degrees. I brought my water culture phals in to the house (70 degrees) for the night. Happy New Year, my friend! :)

Overthemoon

Maybe instead of having the camera fixed on a table with orchids...actually show orchids w.proper light, ones that need more light...ones w.dark green leaves, ones w.pale green leaves..just a suggestion....thank u for doing that half way thru vid..👌
