Default Maxillaria Tenuifolia growth cycle

Hello,

I saw a Maxillaria Tenuifolia in the darkest corner of a shop. Most the pseudobulbs looked fine they weren't too shrivelly. It only had 3 very fragrant blooms. During the summer I placed it in a window where it received very bright diffused sunlight most of the day and some direct sunlight for an hour or so as the sun moves across the bay window and plenty of water.

I bought it April 2021. Around early June the blooms had fallen off and new growth appeared. It's been four months and I counted about 23 new growths. At this time most do not yet look like a pseudobulb they are still relatively small and very few are almost as big as the older pseudobulbs.

So, how long should it take for pseudobulbs to fully mature? Should I keep watering until all the new pseudobulbs are mature? When should I slow down on watering? According to research Max Tenuifolia needs a winter rest, but for how long, how many and which months?

Thanks for all the advice. Billy
