Default Stanhopea oculata back bulbs

Saturday, on our society meeting, I received these two Stanhopea oculata (I think) back bulbs. I have absolutely no idea what to do with them. Until I get help from you, I've put them in loose sphagnum. Please, help me to get these back bulbs setting out new growth.

I generally leave backbulbs lying around with an occasional mist until I see new growth and then pot them up, but that is just in general. No experience whatsoever with this one specifically.

Same thing here, I usually pot them up right away with no water and mist them once in a while.

I've done with with Catasetum, Coelogyne and Oncidium backbulbs now and they all started pushing out new growths eventually.

There are various techniques out there, wait until you've heard other ways of getting those backbulbs to sprout and decide which one you prefer
