To cut? Or not to cut? Those are not the only questions that I answer for myself, when it comes to making a decision as to when I cut my #spikes. I also consider long term planning, what will the orchid be going through in the near future. In this video I show my examples and discuss the why and in some cases the how. #OrchidCareForBeginners
