However, Liverock62 asked me to document my care, so ... in this video, I am sharing what I have learned in the 2 years that I have been growing my slipper orchids in leca and self watering / semi hydro. I have had some successes and some failures, which I hope will help to be copied to match success and avoided, so as not to repeat my mistakes and gain ground with the growing of these beautiful #orchids.
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 :)
