I believe the roots are fine - White and plump. Im attaching a picture of them durring the repotting. Its not the best picture (still has old potting crud on it) but I think it gives an idea.
Let me clarify the repotting/watering: The Onc was bought potted in the peat mix, straight off the delivery truck well-watered. I did not water it for about 2 weeks because the peat was retaining moisture extremely well. At the 2 week mark, I noticed light wrinkling of the largest bulb. The peat was still extremely moist so I waited another 2 or 3 days before I watered it. The medium was still rather wet, but I had no other idea why the PB's would start shriveling.
1 week after watering, the bulb continued to shrivel. This time, I assumed all the wrinkles were because of too much moisture. I repotted it to dry it out but Wrinkling became twice as bad. I went into panic mode and started drenching the thing like a fool.
Im rather unclear with my words sometimes, Im sorry.
Would you advise one last repotting into something more airy, or let it be in what its currently in, making sure it dries out well between watering?
