update

I guess it's been about year since the last post on this little guy.

I am happy to say that the past year has been very successful. I was able to nurse it back to health. I have had 4 pbulbs and currently 2 new growths since last year.

I have gotten better at my watering, no more pleated leaves. The only thing I am still waiting for is a spike. I am crossing my fingers that this winter brings around something to cheer about.

I just re-potted because it had outgrown it's last home. The roots look great, long, healthy and plenty of them. I just switched to a coir based medium. I have been having great results at keeping pbulbs plump on an oncidium so I decided to try it out on this little guy. It's going to be different going from watering every 2-3 days to 15-20 days. Right now I'm just hoping I don't go back to where I was last year, rootless.

Cheers,
Steve
