Default Re: My flowering NO ID Orchid

Last year or rather BB (before baby), I foliar them NPK Green on Mondays, NPK Red on Wednesday; both very light concentration below recommendation. Fridays, fungicide. About 20 pellets of control release at the base, less with smaller plant/pots. Once a month some contact insecticide cypermethryne and when dry weather dimethoade systemic poison. Need to control the spider mites and other creepies crawlies. That is my general rule.

This year, nothing of the above. Just control release and some organic German fertiliser. No time to spray and also, don't want to poison the baby if I forget to wash hand or on cloths. They are in my mother's place. Will show my Phals later. They are all spiking now.
