Most orchids are temperature dependent. Find out when your species begins to spike and replicate those temperatures.

most of my phalaenopsis are winter spikers. if i want them to force a new set of spike then i'd hit them w/ cold air from the a/c for a week, and they'll spike again.

I have a couple of "regular" orchid plants and a bunch of ones that sprout out these tiny orchid flowers...

Shows you how much I know about these plants. :sweat:

I have no A/C. :puppydog:

thx for the plant info....

i once thought of buying/building a green house for my plumeria, for the optimal environment, but then again, after seeing how much trouble building/costs to have a greenhouse up, i forgot of the idea of having one. I did a search once online, and some are pre-built and are in the thousands....$$$$
mine seem to grow well outdoors in the Socal environment. I planted some in the front this year, out of the pot into the soil-ground, and i hope to see some decent results this year hopefully. :fingerscrossed:

yeah, but you guys get off at 2-3pm....and have all these holidays, and vacations, plus summer break...while we in the corporate world do not get much time off... :beaten:

Are you on crack?! I'd like to know what teacher gets off at 2-3pm!

Lets get one thing straight. I start work at 7:30am. I don't STOP working until 5:30pm (sometimes 6:30pm). Then I come home and prep lessons for the next day, which usually takes me into 7:30pm or 8-9pm, depending on the amount of marking. Now, granted, this isn't EVERY DAY. But if it's not, it means we do this work on the weekend, and therefore have NO weekend.

We get March break off, yesh, but we get it to write/create our midterms. So it's not all play. We get Christmas break off (2 weeks), but again, we have exams RIGHT AFTER, so it's all in preparation. Plus, it's only 4 days off if you don't include all the NATIONAL holidays that EVERYONE gets off.

Then there's summer. Contrary to popular belief, highschool teachers don't get TWO months off. They get ONE. But then, that's more than the "corporate" world, so I won't complain.

In the end, yesh, we get time off. Moreso than most. But that's only time off the work ENVIRONMENT. Not time off work. Our job never ends.

And just to hit the nail further, you "corporate" people don't have to deal with icky teenagers 24/7. I'm lucky if I get a lunch break.
