It was very enriching for me and even caused a paradigm shift in my cultivation methods. I still cannot grow highland Neps for that matter but I am pretty sure I have better growing lowland/intermediate species than before. :smile:

well said, cindy:1thumbup:

I water them only when it doesn't rain for a week and the ground was dry due to hot weather.
