It will be no problem at all Jeff. As long as the temperature is nice ----- warm conditions for the roots, and the media isn't waterlogged ---- then all ok.
Over here - in my growing area - my catasetums (except for the flowering one) are all dormant. And in the tropics here ----- I even spray some water into the regions around the base of the dormant bulbs. I've been doing this - not because I have to ----- but just to keep proving to myself that nothing bad is going to happen ----- when the conditions are not 'cold'.
Also ----- I don't even repot my catasetum plants ---- unless the bulbs grow toward one side and makes the pot unbalanced hehe. In general, they just stay in the same pot - and they just resume growing when the dormancy period finishes ----- when new shoots sprout. I figured that --- out in the wild, nobody is going to repot a catasetum anyway.
