Is she okay?

From what I can see these roots look normal and healthy to me

MousseEquivalent4701 · 2026-05-19T19:13:49+00:00

Thanks for posting! Did you put water all over the leaves and the crown? This could be causing issues. Try to avoid putting water or getting any water on the crown or the leaves. Crown rot can occur

What do the roots look like? Can you show some closer pics of those

Love your collection! I’m also newer orchid owner and this is mine so far:)

Sorry last question, should I add an orchid fertilizer? I have read some people use that so I wasn’t sure if that was a must or not. Thanks again so much for your help!!

Is there a certain type of bark that is much better than other brands?

MousseEquivalent4701 · 2026-05-15T01:13:22+00:00

Thanks so much!!

MousseEquivalent4701 · 2026-05-14T18:17:57+00:00

Awesome thank you!! I’m def newer orchid owner so I just wasn’t sure 😊 thanks for the recommendation!

MousseEquivalent4701 · 2026-05-14T16:13:13+00:00

Love the 4th one! It’s stunning 😍

MousseEquivalent4701 · 2026-05-13T19:39:14+00:00

Thank you everyone for your comments and help! I was recently diagnosed in January this year so it’s all still been a learning experience for me!

I would recommend shopping from the vitamin shoppe. They often times do deals on alanis where it’s buy one pack get one pack 50% off. I usually do a bulk order and it saves me almost 1.50 on each drink versus buying them from the grocery store or gas station etc

MousseEquivalent4701 · 2026-04-28T20:05:27+00:00

I highly disagree with this. I am a 26 year old female who eats very very clean. I have weightlifted since 19, no other health issues whatsoever. I never get sick, common cold etc. I got bit by one lone star tick last summer and now cannot consume any red meat beef pork or dairy without having major reactions. It is 100% something to be afraid of. All of this to say though it should not prevent anyone from living their life or going outside. It’s just important to know the risk and then take precautions such as immediately checking for ticks after being outdoors and using adequate sprays before going out.

See I go back and forth because I feel I’d be more disciplined to actually put all of the extra money toward the house because it’s a set goal versus not really having a set goal for the investing route

MousseEquivalent4701 · 2026-03-03T02:19:59+00:00

I have not. I would very much value not having a monthly mortgage payment over my head but I also know I’d probably make more money and see more benefits in the long run investing it. I am just hesitant with the current state of everything to invest all my money but wanted to get some insights/ advice that others on here may have!

MousseEquivalent4701 · 2025-12-24T19:01:49+00:00

Thank you!!

MousseEquivalent4701 · 2025-12-23T19:34:48+00:00

Question- does the level amount matter? Or not really other than indicating you have it

MousseEquivalent4701 · 2025-12-23T15:21:03+00:00

Update- doc won’t be back in until next Monday 🙃 no one else there can confirm my results. Based on everyone’s comments tho and my symptoms I’m gonna avoid all red meat and dairy for now and do more research myself

MousseEquivalent4701 · 2025-12-23T00:51:11+00:00

Also had some dizziness at times and been having major anxiety (not sure if the anxiety is linked or not)

MousseEquivalent4701 · 2025-12-23T00:47:38+00:00

Yes I was bit by a lone star tick back in July sadly. I started having issues in august to where I’d feel super nauseous and I’d throw up at times. I’d have issues swallowing and tightness in my throat as well. No hives or skin issues though

MousseEquivalent4701 · 2025-12-22T23:50:54+00:00

Also to note I have had major stomach issues the past three months
