How can I make my Cattelya Orchid bloom?
I have 2 Cattelya Orchids- one for 3 years and one for 2 years now. I had them in Florida inside with a bright filtered light window and gave them orchid grow fertilizer about every week and a half-2wks. They've grown big (trippled in size actually) and seem to do well in orchid bark mix with spagnum moss around the top surface. I've moved to Indiana 2-3 months ago and they again have a perfect window and seem to be doing just fine. Good sturdy, green leaves, and I let them dry out between waterings and then drench them good leaching the medium each time. But, even using Orchid Bloom instead of orchid grow fertilizer, I can't seem to get them to bloom! What else can I do? Am I doing something wrong?

It sounds like your doing everything right, it takes time. 4 years is about right, keep doing what your doing as they need lots of filtered light. Good Luck, UJ
Hope this will help you a great lot.
Hi,
Water it the Malaysian way, with water after rinsing your vegetable, rice or fish. Fish or seafood water is best.
