Orchid Links
Oct 7, 2009 orchids
From time to time, I will try to post about some of the good orchid websites I have found.
Links for today:
Orchid Board – This is a great place to find out information about orchids. The forum is really good and full of knowledgeable people.
Troy Meyers Flasking – From what I have heard, Troy makes some really good flasks available at a decent price. I have signed up for a couple, but since you get put on a waiting list of sorts, it can take a while to get your flasks. Check it out.
The Orchid Seedbank Project – This is a great place to get orchid seeds. This is where I ordered my seeds from. They arrived within a few days. Aaron sends the seeds in small wax paper bags. The seeds are very small and it looks like he gives you a good number of them. It looks like there will be enough for maybe two sets of 3 mother flasks each.
That’s it for today. Enjoy.

My main idea with this blog is to give some information on growing orchids. I thought it would be fun to share my experience of orchid growing – particularly with growing orchids from seed. I have wanted to grow orchids from seed for a long time, but I never really pursued it, until now.
I have grown orchids off and on for many years. But my latest adventures started back in July when I built a little shade room to grow some orchids in.

Now, I am working on setting up a small corner in the house to grow some orchids from seed. It should be fun.
