🌸🥷🏼 Director Jose San 🙌🏼🤸🏼‍♀️🥰💐 hola amigo mio! I hope that you are already enjoying a beautiful Saturday 🫶🏼 Back to nature indeed! It was nice to go outside this morning and lift their blanket 🥰 today, checking the weather forecast, I am considering moving the shelf to the East side. It is nice an toasty there in the mornings and Stan the Man needs a towel just to stop him from burning. Still dealing with another night of 14ºC, so I am a little hesitant, but I want to clean up the rest of the hedge on the west side 😆 Other than that, it is a beautiful day on the patio and I appreciate you joining me for a little bit through this video! Wishing you a wonderful rest of your afternoon and evening, amigo mio!! Agradezco todo lo que haces por mi 🫶🏼❤️🌸

YAY Nina.... The Angraecums are out in their corner! Spring is now officially here.💚 ... This makes me so happy.😁 Oh, Happy Days, Samurai Sherrii

HI!! 😍💐 I am with you on the Life can be so difficult!! Absolutely and your comment has me saddened because I want to help you in any way I can to get you to have orchids to enjoy watching grow. I know that when I am down (and I have had a really rough couple of weeks) at least my orchids are a huge ray of light that I try to take strength from. So, how can I help you? Would you email me and write everything that you are struggling with when it comes to your orchids, what you have going on, what is happening with your orchids, send me pics ... the whole 9 yards, my friend!! If you have time, I would love to try and be there for you🙏🏼 I say it, I mean it!! ❤️ thank you so much for taking a moment to join me on the patio! You are appreciated here and I really really hope that we can make a turn around together, this growing season 🙏🏼 always here for you 🫶🏼❤️🌸

I hear that! After my recent stay at the hospital, and now all the appointments, Dr visits, therapist in and out has left me with little time to take care of my mini's. Needless to say I've lost several now and it breaks my heart as many were from my cousin before he passed. Hang in there though... You never know.

I am feeling a lot different just by the sunshine, even though the wind is still a bit chilly, but seeing that sun rise higher and higher in the sky, I feel as though I have grown an inch. (probably because I am not walking around hugging my waist to stop the cold penetrating my chore 😂) YOU are appreciated as well, Bette! Thank you so so much for your kind words and your support 🫶🏼 have yourself a wonderful Saturday with Spring in the air and a spring in your step ❤️ 🌸

I hope you are waking up to a wonderful Sunday with all good things ahead of you, after having had an amazing Saturday 🫶🏼 Still need the blanky, but they are off my back!!😆 I wish I could get the East side set up, but while the morning sun generates some nice warmth over there, when it gets shady, there is still a bit of a bite in the air that the terracotta is not compensating for. Oh well, my body needs a rest from all this moving and carrying, so, hopefully Monday or Tuesday I can start with the orchid exodus proper 🤞🏼 cuddles and snuggles to Hapi!! And a big hug to you, 🌸🥷🏼guuurrrrlllfriend!! Thank you so much for everything 🫶🏼❤️🌸

This has to be one of my favorite “traditions” on the patio. I look 👀 forward to this project every year ❤ They both look fantastic and I agree that leaving a bit of dust on the leaves may help them acclimate with minimal damage this year. 😊 Another keiki means another root system 🥰🤞❤️🌸

I always tell myself, 'this' one is not going to take half the day, but then I look at the time and think of the phalaenopsis pulchra still outside, got to get the blankets out... good grief! 🤣 gots us another keik!! Also, it will make the main stem look a little fuller as well, eventually! Fast forward 6 years 🤣 I hope that you are having a relaxing early evening already, amiga mia, after a relaxing Saturday!

🦒👏💝 At last!!! Finally we are able to bring them babies out even if they still need a blanket😅 You did it again, they are nicely tucked in the edge.

FFF 😍🙌🏼🤸🏼‍♀️🥰💐 good evening, meine liebe Freundin!! I am so glad to get this process done, finished, finito!! I still have to wait for the East side though. My body just isn't coping 😪you know what? I don't know where King was this time around. He wasn't with me at all.... I was so focussed on what I was doing, I did not even notice he wasn't around and well, now that you mention it, surprise, surprise (thankfully though, because I nearly dropped the Crestwood because a gust of wind came and caught me off guard!) Both King and Baloo did come out and have a sniff around when I was done, though, I saw that! I had to educate them with a sharp NO, just so that they don't think the space behind the shelf is there for them to mess about in. 🤨 told them, 'you can look, but do not touch!' Thank you so so much for watching, amiga mia 🫶🏼 I hope your Saturday was nothing short of beautiful and I wish you a relaxing rest of your evening 🫶🏼❤️🌸

😍HI!! Sunny Side of life 💐 brightening my patio with your light! They hopefully will bloom for us again around Christmas or January 2025. For now, I am just glad to not have them indoors anymore because they really are scary to manoeuvre around. Not their fault, they have to deal with the threat of a Klutz in their vicinity! They are safer outside now 😆 The pup is called King. He has a story.... 🥲 will share in discord one day🤗 thank you so much for taking a moment to be here, for your kind comment and support! Have yourself the sunniest of Saturdays, the brightest of lights around you to make your day beautiful! 🫶🏼❤️🌸

I always love seeing how much these enjoy your neighbors hedge. I'm sure now they are reunited they'll start churning out roots again. Such a shame you have to pull those lovely green tips away every fall. Congrats on the keiki!

Blais 😍 hi 💐 how very sweet of you to also watch this video, I truly appreciate you! I share your sentiment about having to pull them out every fall. Such a shame. I would love to see them grow out the other side 🤣 no one would know what this green pokey things are coming out the other side. They would get destroyed, but it would be interesting to see it happen. Before it does though, I may need to cut some back eventually because it is getting a little out of hand 🫣😅 not this year though. I was prepared to do it, but we will have another season to see what happens. 🫶🏼❤️🌸

Nicely done Orchid Master. I know how difficult it was for you, hearing your voice makes my day especially after potting all day. Your orchids are just great, puts me to shame. Found out just how tough orchids are, 16 days in a box lost then found. The Catt full of scales, badly wilted but not dead. A vanda in the same box lost all aireal roots, couple of leaves, 2 viable roots. Their not pretty but I won't give up on them. Steady as she goes, thanks Nina.

🌸🥷🏼 Bob San 😍🙌🏼🤸🏼‍♀️🥰💐 good morning, good Sir, from a sunny S'ern Spain! I am sooooo tempted to move the shelf to the east side today because the sun is nice and toasty there in the mornings now, and I really want to finish that part of the hedge where the shelf currently is 😅 Still have a low night ahead and the shade is a bit chilly, so once the sun is gone from the East side, it is not all that warm there. But, getting there!! Soon, very soon!! 🙌🏼🤸🏼‍♀️ I so appreciate your comment, 🌸🥷🏼 thank you so much for being so kind, so encouraging and supportive in so many ways. The friendship is priceless 🫶🏼 from recent pics I have seen, I think you have a root 'problem' 😍🫣😅 amazing! They are gorgeous, so... let's have a root off and you will win that hands down (I only have my Chao Praya to brag about when it comes to amazing root growth😆) I am clutching my pearls as I read your comment about your new arrivals! 16 DAYS??!!! Whhhaaattt??? 🙆🏼‍♀️ you must have been frantic during that time period and then now you have to nurse them ... oh wow! That is the worst feeling ever, when there is nothing you can do but hope that either the box is found, and then that the orchids are still alive and well, its disappointing all around, but there is a sense of relief that there is still something that can hopefully recover.... mixed emotions all around 😪 to have scale on an orchid, even after 16 days in a box, makes me think that there was something lurking in that orchid when she left the seller. Oh my, 🌸🥷🏼 if anyone can do it, you can and I am here for the updates on their recovery because then we can 🤸🏼‍♀️🤸🏼‍♀️ around the patio together! Thank YOU for everything and for watching!

Hi Eelke 😍💐 the Crestwood does my head and my back in!! So, I take my time and stop, step back and start again. It took approx. 30 minutes to get that one into the hedge, but now I am always ready to cut the roots to make my life easier. I do not want to drop the orchid just because I want to see how long the roots can eventually get. My ego vs common sense and when it comes to an orchid of this size and weight, common sense prevails (which is rare! 😂) happy to have them off my back, literally! The space behind me feels empty ... I can breathe easy and not have that guilty conscience for the coming months, which is nice 😊 thank you so much for watching, Eelke, and for your kind comment! I hope your Saturday was fabYOUlous 🫶🏼❤️🌸

I'm so glad you managed to get that done, Nina! I've been busy with orchid chores myself, and I finally managed to get my orchids out into the conservatory. 🎉🥳...Hurray, for the warmer part of springtime! I've cleaned all their leaves, and now all I have left is watering day tomorrow 😅. I was hoping to get to that today, but I only managed to do a few of them. The majority of my collection is awaiting a well needed drink tomorrow. Thanks for the video. Your Angraecum bloom footage is stunning 😍. Enjoy the rest of your weekend, and I hope you'll have a lovely week ahead! ❤

well, at least you can just leave the Angs for 6 months or so and let them grow, it seems to be working for them since they are still giving you blooms. My little Crestwood "3-Spur" is still a fraction of the size of yours (leaf length) and I don't know if that is typical for this mutation or what. It has two keikis of its own (one started last year, one this spring), so I would think that it is "mature", but who knows

The Crestwood almost slipped out of my hands from a gust of wind... close call there 🙆🏼‍♀️ they have my wooly blanket tonight 🤣 now, to get the west shelf moved, and then oh boy does the grow space need a makeover? Its going to be a busy couple of weeks because I also have to prepare for my summer guest. BUT, get the chiddos outside first! 🙌🏼🤸🏼‍♀️ I just google images of the 3 Spur and on instagram there is one in bloom that appears to be half the size of mine and it is in bloom. The leaves on the pic do look shorter because there is a hand in the pic that helps with the size comparison. 2 keikis!! Well, it is liking something of what you are doing, so... it should be just a question of time, no? 🤞🏼 I shall now make myself some hot chocolate, and watch the final holes of round 2.

Hi Alessio 😍💐 so nice to get orchids outside!! Feels like it really is the right thing to do 😊 unfortunately I do not have any masdevallias, no. I was thinking about getting some back in the day when I was building this collection, but I don't like the thought of stressing orchids out when it gets really hot here, add my dry climate, I thought it best to not put any through that after researching the ones I wanted. I wish I could have had a crystal ball that I would loose employment because of the pandemic, then I would not have purchased certain orchids that need warmth and high light during the winter. I wish I had some! LOVE them 😃 thank you so much for watching this video, I truly appreciate your time and support! Hope your Saturday was wonderful 🫶🏼❤️🌸

Hola, Nina, General question: will a batch of fertilized water deteriorate, with TDS and pH numbers, over time? I make a "batch" that will last me a month? Should I expect those numbers to remain, fairly, stable during that period, of time? (Sorry for the simplicity of the question. I'm a newbie at this, and you are my fount of knowledge.

@NinjaOrchids

3 ай бұрын

Hi Bruce 😍💐 while preparing batches makes our lives easier, I would advise to not prepare batches to store beyond one week, if using a synthetic water soluble fertilizer and no more than 24 hrs or 48 hrs for organic fertilizers, during the summer or winter, respectively. While we can work with the pH if there are environmental influences that may alter the pH over time, it is not 100% guaranteed that the mix will still do what it is supposed to if stored much longer (based on which kind you are using). If you want to use up any batches that you have prepared already, please always test with the pH meter and TDS meter prior to giving it to the orchids. Just to be on the safe side. If you see your container bulging, then there is a problem with the batch and I would highly recommend to open it very carefully so as to not have some kind of force coming out of the bottle due to possible gas build up. Also, store the batches out of any form of sun, in a cool, dark and dry place. I make mine fresh every time I need some, and I still make sure that the pH and TDS are what they need to be, even though I feel as though I have a good enough feel for my quantities. It is easy to get complacent in this hobby and then out of nowhere mistakes can happen. I hope this helps, even though it may not be what you wanted to hear 🫶🏼 thank you so much for trusting me with your questions, and know that your feedback is greatly appreciated, as is your support!! I hope that you are having a wonderful Saturday, Bruce 🫶🏼❤️🌸

@@NinjaOrchids On the contrary, I am happy to "hear" all news, good and bad. Afterall, I'm here to learn.

Thanks for all your advice, especially the, TDS/pH, education.

🙌🏼 if you don't mind, would you let me know how your batch behaves? Just to get some understanding. As I make mine fresh every time, and seeing as I cannot afford to experiment with my fertilizer prepared in batches, I am really interested to know what you discover along the way. Always learning, Bruce.... my grandma always said, a day that passes without you having learned anything, is a waste of a day. I do not want to disappoint her 😉🥰
