inCool trick for hot day flower runs
But is rot really that big of a deal for home growers? @val_henderson, my aunt kept her orchids wrapped in moss for years and they bloomed fine. People online act like a little extra moisture means instant death, but these plants live through rainstorms in the wild. I've seen way more orchids die from being bone dry in bark chips than from a damp towel around the base. Sometimes it feels like plant advice forgets about normal home conditions, lol.
