Mabuhay!

Storms/rainy season started around April and for the rest of the year we are still expecting around 8 (super) typhoons plus the incoming of the monsoon rains. It has been raining quite consistently in the afternoon and in the wee hours of the night but since my orchids are placed outside 24/7 and all of them are attached to the trees there's really nothing much i can do, i can't cover my trees or bring them inside my home. What i do is that i don't water at all. After a heavy rainfall i don't water for a week. And when i apply ferts (very early in the AM) in this kind of weather, i just spray it to them without watering my orchids first. My goal is is that they have got to be dry before the day ends which is hardly attainable nowadays.
