After being bit by the CP bug, I was infected by the orchid worm. I thought I'd share a growlist of my current collection as of today and post some pictures when they bloom. It's not a huge collection yet, but it'll be slowly growing.
Phalaenopsis
P. bellina P. x “Brother Sara Gold”
P. x “Hsin Sunflower”
P. schilleriana x stuartiana
P. x “Liu’s Berry”
P. Noid #1 P. Noid #2
Dendrobium
D. kingianum (reclassified as Thelychiton kingianus)
D. tetragonum
D. bellatulum
D. senile
D. chrysanthum
Oncidium and Inter-generics
Dgmra. x Winter Wonderland “White Fairy” O. x “Sweet Sugar”
O. x Twinkle “Fragrance Fantasy”
Cattleya
C. x “Chan Hsiu Jewl”
C. x Noid “mini”
Slc. x “Circle of Life” x Lc. Walgery Bl. “Yellow Bird” (Bl. “Richard Mueller” x B. nodosa)
Paphiopedilum
P. wardii
P. insigne
Other
Masdevallia tovarensis Bulbophyllum barbigerum Restrepia brachypus var striata Restrepia brachypus Neofinetia (Vanda) falcata -purple cultivar Epidendrum (Prosthechea) "green hornet" Epidendrum radicans
Here is what orchids I am specifically looking for and probably will purchase in the future. If anyone does have any listed for trade, I'd be glad to trade if possible, unfortunately I'd have to restrict myself from buying more plants until next year. This year's plant budget has exceed 2x what I originally set, lol.
Wanted/going to buy in the future:
Phal. violacea, lobbi, hieroglyphica and possibly any other species phalaenopsis Bulb. echinolabium, frostii, gracillimum, lobbii, and maybe some other small terrarium suited bulbophyllum if I discover any suitable species/hybrids Masd. glandulosa, strobelii

I love growing the seeds in TC.

I would love to do TC one day, just don't have the space and resources right now. It sounds like a lot of fun, how long does it take for the seedlings to be large enough to be deflasked for you?

Different orchids grow at widely different rates. Generally I would say you need to replate every 3 months. If you wait too long you risk fungus or the plants get tangled.
