what happen with my witchcraft

[raven0005]

hi, i'm new to this forum, 2 weeks ago I've bought 3 orchids from Poland (is summer in there if i'm not wrong), 2 currently are growing good but this witchcraft have me worry due to the yellowing from the new grow (wasn't like this when arrive) and the the smaller bulb is soft and brownish the top, the other bulb is green and fat, I have the plant under a 95w led bulb (1250), cold light, temperature are 19°c on morning - 14°c nights and humidity is around 80%+
Please give some recommendations for make this plant happy again, thanks.

Unfortunately those links don't work. Sounds like cold temps for these guys though.

Maybe you need to increase the min temperature. Is air-circulation good? And are you growing other orchids with this same setup?

Juan,
Are you buying polish orchids and sending them to Peru!? You’ve got the best Catasetinae species in the world native to your country and next door in Brazil!!

The plants you have don’t look too good. Put them in a smaller pot and don’t water them until the new roots are 4” long. Give them much warmer temps.

Hi and thanks for the reply, about orchids from brazil i dont know a store that have international shipping, also i always want the witchcraft jeje; i dont know if i could find a smaller pot in my city but do you think i could put it in the same pot with less media? this plant have longer roots than the bulbs right now (i'll adjunt a pictures).

currently we are in winter in my city (14ºC), i have the plant indoor, at this temperature the plant will go dormant?
and last, do you think the 95W led bulb (cold light) it's ok for the plant?

sorry if i ask too much, this is my first catasetum and i want to learn to care it

Tough to say! Yours was growing and it looks like the new growth might abort. I would try to get this one to grow with heat and light. Then acclimate it in spring.

No problem!

I'm not sure what the 95W LED bulb looks like, but it should be fine if you plant goes dormant. Be sure to mimic the day length changes.
