Hence you just remove hoses when moving the plant. I also like the Ebb and Flowīecause you can mix your nutrients externally and then pump them in at intervals, Orchids (hence my attempt with it shortly). I have heard, and am no flower grower, that Ebb and Flow works well for Of that, whenever I moved the lid it was a pain to control the vines. The vines kept breaking or getting caught and on top Pumpkins in Deep Water Culture (DWC), I had a challenge with changing the waterĪnd controlling the vines. I am thinking this because of the vining nature of the plant. I would say that the moving part might be the most complicated part of this. To my SO the other day about setting up a simple Ebb and Flow to try our hands I do not have experience with orchids sadly enough. I am jealous of the huge national park by you! The Appalachians are my I believe I might need the Raspberry Pi for the controller part, but again this is new to me and will take some time to learn and master.
#Vanilla orchid plant how to
I purchased an Ardueno and when I receive it I plan on learning how to set up sensors and controllers. Also, I was hoping someone out there has tried growing vanilla orchids this way.
I do not know where to start.īecause this site has experienced people, I thought that I would start here. I have been looking periodically at the hydroponic sites and have tried gravity watering with some success but I would like to build a better system or purchase one. This is where I need the most help, I am unfamiliar with the hydroponic systems. One source for water (RO) and one source for the nutrients. Orchids like infrequent weak feedings so I would have to probably have two sources. I treat these plants the same as my other orchids as far as watering and misting.īecause I have not had success with the vanilla orchid in pots previously, I would like to set up an automated hydroponic system.
They are in a plastic container with holes drilled in the sides approximately 1 in from the bottom of the container. A few of my orchids are grown semi-hydroponically. I have no true experience with hydroponics. I live in the Allegheny Mt range and have cooler temperatures. Where it will be placed in the other seasons depends on local weather temperature trends. I would like to grow the plant indoors in the winter and outside in the summer.
