DaisyI said:How adventuresome are you? You have the perfect setup to turn this project into water culture.

The thread "Does anyone do water culture?" in Orchids forum

Keep the setup you have and keep the water level at a point were it covers somewhere between 1/4 and 1/3 of the roots.

BTW, your plant looks really good. Nice green roots, green leaves. Flowers fade and die so don't worry about them. If the flower stems don't turn brown, don't cut them. They will bloom again.

Well cared for Phalaenopsis will bloom for 6 months or more a year.



Thank you, I just checked the link it is helpful.

I just changed the setup again to a plastic one, wood bark with drainage holes in it.

so can I change it again to the glass one and keep the same setup?, wood bark and lower part 2" of stones and gravel fill it with water to reach up to 1/4 - 1/3, of the roots?
Because I saw only orchid with water, and didn't see any mix.
