Hello! I am new to growing mounted orchids. I have just purchased some miniature orchids, two of which are mounted on cork bark. I would like some information/advice on how to best water them. From my research on this, it is recommended that they be submerged in water for several hours. Misting everyday is another option. So, I am wondering if I can put the base of the cork bark into a container of water, just deep enough for the bottom of the cork to be submerged and wick water into the cork mount constantly. If the cork stays damp all the time, might this rot the roots? Any thoughts on this would be much appreciated!
