Inspired by a comment, using a scouring pad for pots and pans, my preference for inorganic mounts and growing inorganically, whilst still somehow giving the roots of the orchids something to dive in to... these mounts came about and are a prototype, so to speak! Michael McCarthy is a living encyclopedia, sharing ideas so generously amongst the Orchid YouTube Community, thank you so very much for that!! I have been 'test driving' these mounts for a couple of weeks now and have come to some conclusions and am sharing these, as well, as other observations, in this video.
I really appreciate the fact that you took the time to watch my video. I am very open to any comments or questions, this video may have brought up. Feel free to ask away and know that I will get back to you as soon as possible! Also, if you have any suggestions that you would like me to address in a video, mention them in the comments below and I will be happy to film a personalized video under the series 'Subscribers Inspire'!
If it is the first time for you, on my channel... Welcome!! Consider subscribing for continued insights into my orchid growing journey, I would really appreciate it :)
