Default Zygo Seedlings

these spent most of summer outdoors and I only brought them in when temps dropped into the 40's.
Both crosses were deflasked on 12 Aug 2014, which makes them 14 months 'old'. They are a nice size - around about 8 inches. Many have 2 new growths. I am really hoping for a couple of spikes ! Indoor temps are in the range of 70-80f - they are growing well. I am keeping the bark/moss media moist - so watering roughly 1-2 x per week. They are in a south-facing window getting plenty of light/shaded sun.
I like the plastic pliable pots - can monitor moisture and more importantly root development.
Unfortunately a few have that infamous zygo foliage black streak/spotting. Will be interesting ( or ) to see what happens over Winter.

They look really good. It was the leaves that drove me crazy with these. I finally had to give my Zygos away. I don't see many issues with yours, though.

Great job! I hope you get some spikes too. Hope things are coming along well.

I have plants with the black streaking as well though I'm not quite as bothered by it, at least not at this point. I'm bothered when the plants lose their leaves like they're deciduous from time to time, lol.
