Default

They're not ready for watering yet - the new growth and associated roots need to be around 3 inches or more, with the new growth leaves opening out. But once you do start watering, be sure to keep them moist - during the "rapid growth" phase, Catasetinae are very thirsty (and also want fertilizer... I use time-release like Osmocote or Nutricote to give an extra boost) That will probably be in 6-8 weeks. So for now, just watch. (Put your hands in your pockets when you're tempted to reach for the watering can... not yet!)
