Come back from a long trip to my sweet home town, all orchids are growing, blooming, spiking.

Simple medium (only 1.54 g/l fertilizer, 20 g/l sugar, with/without 1 g/l charcoal) work beautiful with phalaenopsis seeds



Tiny orchid plants keep growing:






Flowers blooming:




Cheers
Nguyen

We could learn a lot from crayons: some are sharp, some are pretty, some are dull, some have weird names, and all are different colors....but they all exist very nicely in the same box. ...Hmmm? .

Colors of seedlings are: red, pink and white (see flowers pictures above: first flower: phal. Sus D'amour, second: phal. Lavender, and fourth: den. noid). I polinated, got pods and seed sowing from them.

Congrats on the flasks! What's the time frame between pictures? How long from first to last on those seedlings? They're looking very happy - congrats!

Hi Dawn Green,
I use
1.54gram/liter 20-10-20 fertilizer,
20 gram/liter sugar,
1 gram/liter charcoal,
9 gram/liter agar.
You measure the above substances as formula, add water to have a liter of solution; stir and heat to dissolve them; pour into flasks. I only try with 2 phals and 1 den. I never try aerides so I cannot say but I believe it works. Good luck.
