Congratulations everyone!!! Great job! :clap: How often are the rest of you guys watering yours? Mine is doing absolutely nothing. :bua: I think I'm going to remount mine onto cork. And I'm thinking I'm not watering it enough. I mist everyday but I think I should dunking it everyday instead. :hmm

I am watering mine every day with RO water. . .in the morning. And it's mounted on cork and hanging just just beneath the grow lights on the back wall.

I checked mine this morning and it has 6 spikes for this year. Seems like every time I check there is another. Not a lot of new roots, but the old ones look robust. About double (or more) the green growth from last year. Every-other-day fertilizer/RO water regime along with 5 second mistings every 4 hours. Lives in high humidity and high light near top of my tank.

SIX SPIKES!!!! :yikes: :cheer: You can't even imagine how jealous I am! Mine is doing pretty well with new leaves and roots but notta on the spiking front. :_( I did end up remounting mine on cork. It looks so much better on the new mount. It did have one root that was starting to stick to the mount it was on but came off easily when soaked. It's not fair, mine has never had a spike. Boo hoo for me! :bua: :coverlaugh:

Sarah, I'm in the same boat! New roots, new leaves... no spike, not one, so far...

Ah well... I'm glad your's likes the new mount. I mounted mine on cork as well, almost as soon as I got it. It is now firmly attached to the mount with all of the new roots.

I have better luck with the Neos!!

All I can say so far, is, Go Wardian Case!

I show this pic to mine every day! Aerangis lueto-alba var rhodosticta - in Wardian case
