Looking for some experience or advice for this guy. Backstory is I got it at an orchid show back in May of this year. The vendor, I believe was Ritter's Tropical Orchids, usually has lots of baskets with babies and divisions of many different types of orchids that are like a mix and match. I think it is like 2 for $20 and 3 for $25 type thing. Anyways, got this chid as part of that and when I got home I unpotted it right away to discover absolutely no viable roots (I was expecting it though). Also, it is actually 3 separate divisions, none of them are connected. Potted it up in about 75% sphagnum moss and 25% bark and treated it with some Kelpmax (stuff is amazing BTW). It grows outside on my patio in Florida with all my other chids. I have kept it moist pretty much the entire time without letting it dry out for the most part. It didn't really do much for a while until a few weeks ago it started new growths from the nodes (kind of hard to see from the first picture but you can see some aerial roots on the right division). Then one of the little divisions sent out a single flower shortly after that. I understand when winter comes around to reduce watering but was hoping to get some advice on any other aspects of care. It gets fertilized weakly weekly.

Should I leave the new growths with aerial roots attached or try to remove them and pot them up?

Does anybody know if this would prefer a dry period in between watering during the growing season or is keeping it moist without drying out alright?
