LOL, I don't know much of anything about orchids, I can't even remember which variety is which unless I look them up! I do wait for the spikes to turn brown and then I trim them off. And, I remove any yellow leaves. I have one orchid hanging in the bedroom window that bloomed about 1 1/2 months ago and it still has two flower spikes that are alive so I haven't cut them. I just took a picture. I will cut off the brown, dead tip of the one stem but you can see there are little nubs/buds forming on the ones that are still green.

Karen: What a great Strep nursery you've got going there! Looks wonderful!
