This plant is tough! Today the phal I have next to it decided to keel over, knocking it off the shelf. It actually rolled, including upside down. Didn't come out of the pot though! Some of the medium came out, so I retrieved some with cat hair and it's now got it's roots a bit more exposed! There seem to be more roots than I thought, so I'm wondering if it sneakily grew some I couldn't see before.

A tiny jade plant I have got did get tipped out of it's pot. That's the second time recently. Also a tough plant! It would fit on the soph's biggest leaf!

I moved mine into brighter light and in one day it seems fine, but with heat into the 100's I watered in the evening, along with my tolumnias. Do you thin this will be alright?

I bathe mine once in the early morning before going to bed and I spray it in late afternoon.
It hasn't suffered any!
I think it even likes it!

short update from my side...

my project plant is putting some new roots :)
on the other hand, it is end of June and I have not received my yellow cernua.. NWO cannot provide a tracking number of the shipment, but agreed to give me back the money (already reimbursed!)... so, I am more or less happy with that, and still looking were to get a Sophro. cernua yellow form... :)

You should be fine. We're having the crappy heat too and I've been watering 2-3x a day.

I havent had much time to check the forums, or even this thread, but wanted to update on how my plant is doing.

This is a photo I took May 10th of the new growth I noticed.

And now, taken July 1 (please excuse the cell phone pictures).

Roots coming from all over the place.

And here is where it sits. 80-85F days, 50-55F nights. Humidity varies from 50% during the day to 80% at night. Sitting a little over 12" from 6 HOT5's at the very end of the light bulbs.

looks good, 31drew31

Mine has something similar to your first picture, although I doubt I have the macro capacity to get a good photo yet. Guess that's going to be a new growth after all

Looks wonderful!

It looks like that tumble mine took broke a few roots, including one of the new ones. Now rather short on good ones. Keeping my fingers crossed...
