lt you have’t tried FENORCO do 
so today. It’s the safest, most ef- 
ficient orchid insecticide on the mar- 
ket. 
FENORCO is CONCENTRATED

FENORCO. It stays in condition 
for spraying, after dilution, for 
days, it creams but needs only to be 
stirred or shaken back into solution. 
THIS FEEDING BUSINESS 
(Continued from Page 2) 
when he tries a cautious experiment 
or two with teeding, he gets no results 
as the assimilation of food by the 
plant is related directly to the 
amount of light it receives. 
All of the old school grower’s ideas 
are taken from old world orchid 
growing techniques — they work 
pretty well in regions of poor light 
but when we bring them to the tro- 
pics, or it’s edge here in Florida, we 
have to create a completely false si- 
tuation by giving our plants artifi- 
cially poor light by heavy shading. 
Do most orchids grow in deep shade 
in their native habitats? Of course 
not! Only a very few insignificant 
little species are found in deep shade. 
Most orchids, and this goes particu- 
larly for the Cattleyas. Vandas, On- 
cidiums, Dendrobiums, etc. com- 
monly seen in cultivation, are often 
found growing in full tropical sun- 
light and I have never seen a robust 
wild plant growing in more than half 
shade. 
Probably the one place in the world 
where feeding is practised most uni- 
versally is Hawaii. There almost 
everyone feeds all species — Oc- 
casionally you hear of some one 
killing a plant by overfeeding but 
not often and you regularly see 
the most vigorous Vandas, Dendro- 
biums, Grammatophyllums, Epiden- 
drum, Spathoglottis, etc. you have 
ever seen. 
This is not a fertilizer ad — we 
don’t sell it yet but I suggest that 
you try it. A teaspoonful of Hyponex 
to the gallon of water seems to give 
good results tous. We apply it about 
once per week while the plants are 
growing. We also give terrestial 
orchids heavy applications of cow and 
chicken manure.
