Ah that's why I didn't understand. We have soft water here (around 60 to 80ppm) so we don't get mineral residues on our leaves. Thanks for clearing up that one. "Ray" wrote in message ... More often than not, it's the mineral deposits from hard water that have to be removed, not just dust -- that's easy. -- Ray Barkalow - First Rays Orchids - www.firstrays.com Plants, Supplies, Books, Artwork, and Lots of Free Info! . . . . . . . . . . . "Bolero" wrote in message u... Doesn't just a damp cloth and water clean dust and stuff off them? That's all I use and my leaves are clean..........or are you trying to clean off something specific. "J Fortuna" wrote in message ... I just read in the rec.gardens.orchids archives that many people use 'milk' to clean their orchid leaves? However, while at least one post claimed that there is no smell, another post claimed that as a result the smell can be very strong. Hmm. Since I live in a small apartment I don't want the place smelling of milk gone bad. Has anyone out here now used milk, and if so, does it smell or not? What is the best way to clean/dust leaves in your experience? Thanks, Joanna |
