I was wondering in regard to leaves, what would be the primary reason that you may get a yellowing in the margin area as well as tips. This happen on some not all.                                 thanks

Most likely soluble salt toxicity or medium allowed to go too dry.  Could be fluoride toxicity, typically a "half-moon" burn along the leaf margins. Clem

Hey Clem     Thanks for the info, we were kind of thinking      along that line.I notice that you have an orchid      as your picture. Do you grow them, we do and love      it. We have a greenhouse that is 14ftx30ft full      of orchids, we include many of them in our       interior displays.

Speaking of the picture, when do I graduate from being a "seed"? How does that whole thing work?

I'm not sure about the "seed" graduation thing.  The orchid icon was assigned to me as a symbol of my "rank"...I guess how many times I've posted here since the site was re-started. I actually started out in the biz as an orchid grower while I was still finishing up college.  Did that for five years, and went to many shows along the way.  Learned how to do plant tissue culture, too.  Still grow a couple on the windowsill at home, and our wholesale and retail operation sells quite a lot of orchids year-round.
