Brassavola cucullata - compotting from flask

[IdahoOrchid]

I was not sure WHERE to post this: I am a beginner, but this is an advanced topic, but it is also part of the cattleya aliance? Oh well, here it is and it can be moved if so desired.

This is my first attempt at comotting plants from flask. As you can see in the first photo, it came from Meyer's Orchid Conservatory ( http://www.troymeyers.com/ ) and he, as I understand is the norm, sent it already deflasked. What a stupendous service at an ASTOUNDING price. I have discovered that if you are not FAST at responding to emails you most likely will not get the flask you so crave, especially in paphs!!!. Give the site a look-see if you are looking for some tiny, inexpensive plants to work with.
