Default Oncidium novice help

Hi,

So I finally decided to branch out and try my hand at other orchids, I have a collection of 11 phals which are all doing great (two currently in bloom and another 8 in spike).

So at the local nursery I picked up two cattleyas and an oncidium. One cattleya is tagged, the other one wasn't except for saying it was red/green. And thr oncidium just had a tag saying it was yellow oncidium.

So my question is since I don't know what type of oncidium it is how should I treat it? I repotted it in a bark mix with a very little bit of sphagnum, I have it on a window sill so it gets allot of sun. I've had it for a good month and I'm keeping a close eye on it for signs of too much light but so far I think it is looking good.

Then yesterday I notice it had new growth. But I can't tell if it is a spike or a new bulb, and I see it is putting out a new root too.

Any tips I can get would be great!! It's about 10" tall to where the leaves naturally swoop down.
