Hey,

My Psycho finally bloomed. Was wondering what can I do so the flower lasts longer?
Cold/humid/sunny ?
Can I move to shadier area to enjoy the flower more ?

I suggest you let it stay where it is....it might blast or quicken the wilting if you move it....do not cut the spike; it will produce more blooms for you in the next cycle

Yes to what Bud says. A change in the light direction could shock it.

Also especially now, don't over-water it!

Best of all... enjoy :-)

*I put a saucer of water under the pot and when it runs dry, its time to put the pot under the sink and drench it for a couple of minutes.
