I purchased this seedling in June 2002 it was about 2" in height and a nice
lush green shade with several small p/b forming. I kept it in the coolest
part of the house where it was not getting the ideal temp drops for night
time, but during the day it was getting no more than 73F (Nighttime 70F).
No direct sun exposure to sun, and it's getting a touch more light than my
Phals. Because it's a seedling I've been trying to keep it on somewhat
regular diet of GroMore 20-10-10. It's been growing well and developed some
new little p/b's. Some of the tender leaves developed a slight tip burn
which I've removed but nothing serious. I decreased the fertilizer dose and
freed the plant from the ugly tip burns. In the past 3 weeks or so, I've
noticed that the plant developed a very light green appearance, very light
jade color and the leaves are not all as erect as they were before. I
knocked it out of the potting medium (medium size bark a bit of NZ sphagnum
moss, charcoal and perlite, in a 2 1/4" plastic pot) and the roots appeared
white and healthy. This morning two older leaves on two different p/b's
were brown and laying flat on the surface of the plant.

1- What is the correct green shade for this Odtna?
2- Just how much light does it need in the summer and winter?
3- Am I overfertilizing?

Help will be greatly appreciated,
Mariana
