One month later -- Phrag Sorcerer's Apprentice
Yesterday was one month since I received my Phrag Sorcerer's Apprentice. It was an ebay purchase. The seller told me it was a division from their mother plant, taken October 2011.
When I got it, I did the usual checks, and then gave it one dose of KelpMax, and fed it K-lite like I do my other Phrags. Since then, I've given it regular watering with K-lite and it has 'decent' light coming in from my front windows.
The results? A new 2nd spike, and *SIX* new growths - just in the one month I've had it. They were not there before! I'm pretty amazed. I will be sticking with KelpMax and K-lite for sure.
The pot is 3" wide, for perspective. So this is a pretty small plant - For now!

That's very impressive new growth. I recently purchase that same orchid. I've heard that it produces a lot of blooms. I'm looking forward to seeing both yours and mine in bloom. Thanks for the info on fertilizers also.

Just be careful Tucker, you said your plant is already very large - maybe it would reach too far if you did what I'm doing! It probably would be worth it though.
