Have not been ignoring you
@drdawg, things are busy here just now. Family stuff, you know the drill. Plus the weather does not help the old bones.
I must get out in the barn and take a picture of the spag. forms I got that I hate because they are not what I expected, but I have still been doing some research on Tillandsias and I found this article on NGAs Learning Library written by Michael MacCaskey June 23, 2008. He said if not mounted, "immerse the entire plant in water for up to 12 hours every other week or so."
I found that very interesting because many of the growers I have talked to do not leave them soaking that long. I have left new plants, just shipped soak over night, but once they have settled in, I do not soak them that long. It is so difficult for a new grower to know what to do and finally I throw up my hands and as I always told people who bought my plants, "this is the way I do it and it worked for me, but you need to find a way that it works for you"....therefore, I am going to do what I think is making my plants happier. Done. Have a great day!
