Need advice on Oncidium!
Hello again!
Now that a few of my Phal are spiking, I would like to get my Oncidium Sharry Baby Sweet fragrance to spike too. Does anyone know how I can make my Oncidium Sharry baby spiking? It has 8 PS and growing 3 others. It`s in S/H in a 8 inch pot! I grow it on windowsill, facing south-west ( at this time of the year, that`s where it has more light). Day temp is around 23C and drop to 18C at night ( maybe more since winter is already here in montréal! ) Any advice? Claude -- |

Hi Claude.
Your plant is certainly big enough to bloom, and I know Sharry Baby does well in s/h culture. If the plant gets enough light it should spike as each new pseudobulb matures. If it's too close to the window and gets a chill at night blooming may be disrupted. I used to have one and it bloomed every spring/summer for me in the Niagara Falls area. I got rid of it...I like fragrant orchids, but it was a bit too much! Just keep it in good light and you should see something in the spring. Dave "Claude" wrote in message ... Hello again!
