I would say that your Catasetum is a bit out of whack with its seasonal timing, but thats ok. The fact that it is healthy and growing is all that matters. The newest growth is likely the largest one, which is good! Each new growth should be atleast as large as the last one, if not bigger. The fact that you have a new growth means that you can water it vigorously pretty soon. Since you have been watering it fairly often already, I would only cut back on the watering (not eliminate completely) until the old bulbs shrivel a bit and then water as we discussed earlier. As the growth and roots get larger, begin increasing the watering regime as well. BTW, what type of Cat is that? I have a denticulatum that has still not begun a new growth yet while all my others are nearly mature!! I got it from EOoM and I was able to visit them a few weeks ago and thier denticulatums were at about the same state. Im just wondering if that is the same type that you have.
