With Paphs (I don't have Phrags, so no personal knowledge) I do essentially the same thing except their roots don't change color. I watch for moisture areas of wet medium to start drying, then water/fertilize. So maybe this sort of dabbles at an answer?
Phal roots? Whoa, I've never heard of this before. When I repotted a couple of my phals, I saw that the roots where white and green. So why do they change color? Is this good?
