Hi,

I don't have any experience deflasking Phrags and this is my first try, the flasks weren't cheap so I need some help with them. I have deflasked individually into 50mm pots (2 inch) and there were 3 flasks in total. The sizes are quite varied and as they were quite tossed around they had to be deflasked right away. I have potted them into sphagnum moss and perlite.

Also, I have them outside in the greenhouse which is heated tonight to about 13C. The humidity is quite high and the moss is still quite wet this evening. There is a fan for air movement. The dilemma I have now is that I am tossing up whether to put them inside my home so they are protected from the elements and pests but there is no air movement and it's quite dry in here with perhaps less than 50% humidity. Outside is more ideal but they are young and I am thinking that maybe inside plastic storage boxes like I did with the paphs might also work for phrags.

What do you think? These are the flasks, as you can see one flask did not produce many plants but the other two were ok.

The back trays are Phrag kovachii x schlimii

The front tray is Phrag kovachii x besseae

Thanks for looking

Humidity and air movement is crucial when it comes to growing Paphs and Phrags especially the seedlings, so outside would be a better option in a protected area. Inside, you could always add a fan and a humidifier running 24 hrs a day.

Great looking seedlings by the way.

very very nice:heart::Party::heart:

Very nice plants. Young plants do need the extra care and protection so indoors would better with better care provided like high humidity, warmth and air movement.

Thanks guys, I will move them inside today, I can't keep an eye on them out there properly anyway so it's the best option.
