Question Dens. starting new growth

Cynthia, Jerry & others who helped, thank you. I followed your excellent advice and stopped fussing with my dendrobiums. You were right and I just needed to understand their habits and be a little more patient.

I thought they were all destined for death with loosing so many leaves; however, I withheld water for several weeks now and this morning noticed new growth. There are new pbulbs. starting at the base and I noticed that 3 pbulbs. have new growth starting at the tip of the canes.

Now my question is: When do I start watering & fertilizing again? Is is too soon?

Sharyn -- I would start watering now and fertilizing on your next scheduled water/fertilize.

When you have a chance, please post a pic.
