Yes busted allll I REALLY dislike the ice cube thing. My friend bought a phal at Wal-mart and it had the ice cube thing. She called me just to ask if it is really true. Yes I went to her house within 24 hours after having her soak bark, brought her a clear plastic pot and we repotted the pretty healthy phal. I also brought over two phals in different stages of my watering schedule so she can tell by lifting them when hers will need water. Good thing it was 60 outside that day
