Thanks everyone. I really don't know what I'm doing with these (still unsure about every p-bulb type orchid) so I was really suprised when I got such a good flowering from it. Like Judi has said, I'm afraid to overwater and so end up underwatering.
I repotted it in April and the root mass was solid with roots. I broke that open a lot and then it went in a clear pot and I have seem massive root growth since.
Someone, I think it might have been Hedge, advised me that they do best with water run through the pot, and not dunking them in water. I have been doing that since, and I think it's good advice. By doing this the media does not get so thoroughly soaked and dries in the center quicker, meaning you can water more often. The growths I've seen since has been uncrinkled... might be coincidence or might not, but I'm going to carry on that way for now.
Evan, this was grown in an east windowledge. I put most of the p-bulb based orchids out in the greenhouse for the summer but for some reason this one didn't go with them (not sure I had a reason except that it seemed happy where it was).
