Today we test out a product that many people swear by and try to see if it makes any difference in helping my orchids root!
🦋 More info below! 🦋
The product that I will use is Neptune's Harvest, find it here https://go.missorchidgirl.com/9pByEU
This is supposed to enhance the entire plant and yield better harvest. We are not going to harvest anything with orchids, but I will test out some of the claims that orchid growers put out there on the internet, because this just seem to be the best thing after the wheel! Just look at these:

Some orchid society members are not as impressed https://staugorchidsociety.org/PDF/OrchidSupplementOrSnakeOilBySueBottom.pdf
The source of info in this video https://www.easy-grow.co.uk/kelp-ascophyllum-nodosum/
Some people say that the products can differ too, so maybe I will trial KelpMax as well, let me know if you want another trial!
I tested it out for 2 months to see if new root production is improved. I cannot say I see satisfactory results, but I will continue to use this product and see if the plants themselves and flowering is enhanced!
But as for the claim that some people use for.. maybe clickbait.. I am not convinced just yet :) The company never claimed anything like that anyway, so I'll stay with what they claim the product will do and will keep you up to date.
