@ccd230 3 года назад

At university they told us all about how difficult it is to grow orchids from the seed. They told us its easier to clone an orchid than to germinate it. So most orchids sold in shops are "clones".

Protip: You're more likely to get real orchid seeds if you buy pods, rather than "seeds" in any quantity.

well not always true, my local providers sell/give them without the pods, which makes sense, I'll never use a whole pod by myself. (these providers sell propagation equipment, orchids, and in vitro cultivation lessons ;))

It looks like a flower ive grown put before or. More likely it really looks like the lesser ragweed in my garden. I pull a lot of them lol. I learned a long time ago to not buy online. Unless its a real company. I have done trades of heirloom seeds with an online community and had better luck finding rare/unique veg. But even then not all seed savers save meticulously. I cull off type plants and save only from certain Hardy/robust/fruit shape etc.. where some people collect every seed. Nice channel and great advice.

@wandakucharska2694 3 года назад

Good video! 😊 i was betting they were carrot seeds. 🤣i would like to ask if it's possible to encyclia & cattleya type orchids get black spots on leaves on new growth due to repotting? Last year i repotted my dowiana and cordigera. Cordigera did not have good roots, but dowiana had. I saw similar symptons on anothers cattleyas repotted last year in spring, but not so several like dowiana. 🥺 Older leaves didn't get any spots. This year new growths do not have black spots, even if they only have a few. Orchids stay in my living room, i don't use humidifier nor i spray leaves with water. I wind the room regularly. I only spray MOG's pesticides sollution twice a year. 🥰

It baffles me that people would buy seeds online without doing any research into how to cultivate and grow that type of plant. Probably people like my mum who just buy plants at the shop that they like the look of and then have no idea how to care for them. That's how we ended up with a pitcher plant that I immediately advised her to return for a hoya because I have no experience with carnivorous plants and neither does she!

@seymourbones 3 года назад

this is so common in the plant community, people will sell anything from No ID seeds of the same species, to completely different plant seeds, to things that arent even seeds (ive seen people being sent a bag of loose leaf tobacco sold as a plant that does not exist but was marketed as a pitcher plant with luna moth wings photoshopped onto it) And it's especially sad when you know some novice gardener or little kid is buying "rare black and white rose seeds" and getting seeds for clover or something

@kiyuemadkick 3 года назад

We need to start telling folks that Orchids start as spores not seed. We grow those spores in sterile agar medium in a lab. Than grow them up to bloom size which is 3-10 years depending on the orchid. Some folks are very lucky and if they have a cool native orchids seedpod and a mossy board or tree/ rocks you can add the microscopic seed to water in a spray bottle and saturate the area with a spray bottle and let nature handle things. This can be done with tolumnia in the bahamas. Mist a tree and it will be covered. Oncidiums in south america can be done similar. Cool right?
