Saffron Update
Disa Saffron which I treated last year with 10% bleach solution to cure rot has progressed with both shoots producing ample new growth this season. I'm hoping the signs are good to see some blooms.

You are growing the saffron hydroponically or in a greenhouse? If hydroponically what nutrient and timer setup did you find works best? I see you used a 10% bleach solution to cure the rot.how often did it sit in the solution... I am excited about switching the saffron crop over to a hydroponic system but i can't find a whole lot of info for the hydroponic setup data.

Been interested in orchids for the past 4 years, starting with a Phal bought from the supermarket. Member of the Suffolk Orchid Society in the UK.
While experimenting and finding out which orchids we liked or could grow, made the mistake of buying too many. We have now narrowed down the range of plants we are growing. A new greenhouse has been set-up for phals with heating lighting and shading to suit. We have transfered our whole collection to flood and drain hydroponics using two commercial trays and a couple of experimental home made set-ups.
Our next greenhouse, waiting to be erected will be for Disas. Happy to hear from anyone on hydroponics, growing Disas, phals or anything else interesting.
