As Ilford Ortho is an orthocromatic film you can develop it with your inactinic light you use in your darkroom so you can use your eyes to judge how long to develop.

I developed Ilford Ortho plus 35mm for 9 min in HC-110E, which gives 6 min in HC-110B. Looks fine.

yes. Like most other ilford films, it's best to run this at 6 minutes in dilution b. here's some uncorrected scans from last year, probably from the roll that prompted this post.

The Massive Development Chart is a collection of anecdata, errant opinions and not-always-well-or-fully-transcribed manufacturers' data.

Instead, you should always start with the manufacturer's supplied data. You can find the Ortho+ one here. The two development times are for normal/ ISO contrast and for a higher contrast index (for technical uses etc).

I think I did try looking that up back in the day, but hcc110 wasn’t listed
