Ascocentrum Mona Church x ampullaceum

[exotic_plant]

Hi everyone. I have new orchid, it's Ascocentrum Mona Church x ampullaceum. I read a lot about care, and almost everyone suggest me to care for it like for Vanda. Now, I am asking you a question: In my growing space, night temperatures are from 17 to 20 C (62-68 F), and during day around 22 C (71 F) so, I knew that I need to watter only in morning, but I am afraid not to harm the growing tip of plant. So, should I avoid misting plant, and to watter only roots (and mist them), or it is resistant to water stand?

Here is the picture of the plant. There is about 10 growths.

WOW!! gorgeous orchid!
I try to keep water from the top of the plant. I water and mist in the morning too, and have a fan on, to help with evaporation, if I do get some water in the crown, by the time the lights go out (I keep mine in a grow tent) it is not pooled at the top.
Great growing exotic_plant

Very nice plant !!
I see you are using the vase as a growing technique there let us know how it goes with this plant. I'm tempted to try it out on some of the vandacious plants I have.

For now, I mist the plant every morning, and soak it in water two times a week.
