    Hi Willeke,
    Thanks for replying.
    They will probably 99% chance end up in vases so I will deflask similar to how you have depending on what i can nick out of the cupboard ;-). I wil start a thread after of the deflasking.

    Thanks again
    Jason

    I will only add Jason that I am familiar with the Vanda babies you just received in regards to the eventual looks of the blooms and you should have some real stunners there. AL

    Well Jason If it goes just as tough as mine flasks it will give you a rough time. It was not easy to deflask them. Good luck. I think you did make a good choise, regarding to what Al is saying.

    The flasks are wide so i shouldn't have a problem removing plants from them. I am going to start it soon I was just finishing some work first.

    When the plants are still small there is not such a rush. I waited with deflasking till they did grow a little.

    Do you think your bowl and mist method would work for cattleyas?

    Very unique way of growing the seedlings out of the flask. Is this the way they normally do it in Holland?
