Steve,
Although I don't have an Odontoglossum myself, I do know some of my orchid
members that grow them. An eastern or well shaded southern exposure suits
them best. They like to be kept from drying out completely between waterings.
From what I remember they use mixtures of one part coarse sand, one part
shredded peat, one part coarse perlite and four parts fine bark. Also the
night temps should be about 50-55 F. Most of these guys grow in the Andes
where they get continual cool moist conditions.
