Hi all, we just returned to Tampa from the Santa
Barbara orchid show last weekend. What a change of pace from the usual shows
around Florida and the southeast. We enjoyed ourselves even more than the Miami
International shows we have been to.
Anyway, my reason for posting; after my wife saw
the cool growing pleurothalids on display in cases form Andy's (what a great
display!), and the Pleurothild Alliance, I have been granted the task of
building a climate controlled case for her so she can grow some of these
miniature jewels.
Does anyone know where I can find details for
building a DIY case suitable for these types of orchids? I have googled some
pieces of info on the net but not really enough to begin a project. I have
finished some wood working projects for the home, have tools, and I'm
generally pretty handy. I could build some sort of plain display case now but
I'm not sure about the details of maintaining temps and humididity. Also could
use suggestions on automation.
Any help is appreciated.
Sincerely, Michael Sandven |
