The doubly-periodic semiregular variable V Hydrae became redder and developed resonance emission lines and bands during the 1992-94 deep minimum, which therefore resulted from the production of a circumstellar dust cloud. This removes the need to postulate a secondary pulsation period, ten times as long as the main pulsation period, in the stellar as opposed to circumstellar envelope.
