Thanks Bud, it was getting too much sun where it was and the leaves were a very very light green, I moved it under a big skylight when the first spike blasted, it gets very bright light all day. I spray it once a day and water 2 X a week, guess I should bump up the watering?

It would be nice to have a picture of it...what media is it in? Bumping up the watering will depend on the media, you dont want to rot it too...maybe putting it indoors near a bright window will make your plant open its bloom and maybe last longer...I have a sneaky suspicion the dry atmosphere is sucking its moisture(I checked humidity in Denver today is 47% and dewpoint is 50 degreesF) for your plant it needs low 40% and a high of 60% humidity...you are ok so far...just dont keep on moving its position especially that its spiking.

That humidity you checked on is very high for us, its usually a lot less, Denver is technically in the desert. Its in a bark mixture medium, with charcoal and styrofoam or something similar. When I can figure out how to put a pic on here I will. Thanks a lot for the info.
