Getting my first keikis coming in on my oldest orchid, I’ve had about 2 years. Applied the paste about 8 weeks ago

That’s amazing! I didn’t know if that paste really worked or not. Where and when do you apply it? Any certain brand of the paste?

I used the Keiki Power Pro. These flower spikes had been on the plant for about two years. As soon as the most recent flowers fell off I applied the paste on the node where the spike had branched off from its most recent blooms.

I have a handful of phalaenopsis and have been experimenting applying the paste in different spots, this one has had the best results so far.

Where do you get the Keiki Power Pro paste?
