If the numbers being shown in northern California are so low, why the heck
do ya'll need all those JC's?

In a nutshell, because one can't get there from here. Traffic is murder,
and if you grow in the central valley there's no way you are going to bring
your orchids into the Bay Area. Hence the center in Sacramento, which has
already out awarded the SF and Oakland centers.... I think...


Why is the number being considered at POE lower? Are people marking
plants "Not for Judging", are the displays smaller, or are the judges not
picking out as many as they used to?

I think the judges aren't picking out as many as in previous years and
people aren't entering as many either.
