Hi Tom - I certainly don't claim to be an expert but when the weather gets damp and cool here I have the same issue - in some cases I might not need to water some of my phals for three weeks or longer. Whatever you do - I wouldn't water until they are dry - however long it takes. If they don't get a chance to dry out I have found root rot inevitable. I think the best solution is as Cynthia suggested at the beginning of her post - WARM up the environment you have them in if possible and provide lots of air circulation. I know I'm going to try and make those two modifications this winter season. Good luck - mike
