Ok. So I have that NOID oncidium. Well, it started to grow a new psuedobulb in March, any ideas on when it will bloom? Do I start using the bloom booster on it now or later?
LOL! If the new growth started in March, I imagine it'll be July or August before it spikes. You can start using the bloom booster just as soon as you see the spike emerge. Some growers even begin using it when the new growth actually starts rounding into a bulb, to get the added nutrients to the plant as early as possible.
