| Looks good, what mix did you decide on for it? I am pondering a hairy rooted repot of my own lol.

| I am using Schultz's orchid mix soaked with worm tea on most of my chids right now. I have tried a couple other things, but I'm happy with this so-far. I add a little chopped sphag on plants that need a little more moisture, like this one. I may change down the road, but for now, this is working for me.  I used some "ghost-poop" in the bottom for drainage- aka -packing styrofoam.

| Yes, Mine has the small rocks in it, too. It's good for me as I like to water a lot, and the rocks drain a lot! I put ghost- poop in the bottom, also-  I'm growing this one under grow-lights.. T-12's
