That is a happy plant...beautiful flowers too...dont worry about the blasting...maybe when you get the watering regimen down pat then the moisture of the flowers will be constant...all my mounted plants get to be watered everyday...because in nature they have morning dew to moisten them in the morning
awesome job...a couple of blasted buds might have occured regardless ...lol I bought one at the box store and lost a couple of buds just from the move so doubt it was your fault
Nice mounting & a great looking piece of driftwood. I always say if in doubt...mount. You usually can't go wrong just have to water more. I have several phals mounted and they do great. Mine are all spiking now.
