Andy Phillip's advice on bare root Sobralias is to start them in pure sphagnum. I have found that helps... then I move to fine bark for the long haul. Once established, they don't need potting very often because they're pretty much terrestrial so aren't bothered by broken down mix as much as other orchids. They do resent the bare-rooting process so be patient - and expect a lower success rate than for epiphytes for that reason.
