| How are the babies doing?
Slippery Biscuit: I'm not sure putting water in the bottom of the container is a good idea. You certainly don't want the pots to be sitting in water. You want the air around the plants to be humid, but the roots need to breathe, so you want the moss to be damp, but not soaked. As I'm sure you and Pikevi are discovering, there's a fine line between not enough humidity and too much. I wouldn't water the compots until they're almost completely dried out. Depending on conditions, this may take weeks. Also, just so you know, cattleya type orchids are some of the more touchy to deflask, especially if they're as immature as it sounds like yours are. |
