To repot or not

Yes, I am in Vancouver. For the last couple months we've had a ridiculously dry (no rain summer). However the humidity has been sitting around 60%-70%. I haven't travelled much and don't know if thats considered high or low.

With that in mind what do you think about water?

Same recommendation, try twice a week, increase or decrease the frequency until the medium is nearly dry before you water again. Each time, run plenty of water through the medium at the sink.

BTW I would consider your humidity to be moderate. Should be good for most Phals.

I assume you were citing the outdoor humidity? Wonder what the humidity is running indoors? I wish I could get 60% humidity for my orchids. I run around 50% indoors in the summer in my humid climate with A/C running.
