This has been a decent on and off bloomer for me this year.

I have one of these too. It keeps making nice little flowers and seems very happy in my intermediate greenhouse as long as my humidity stays at least 70% - better with more. I fertilze at 1/4 strength every watering - about once a week, but less now that we are having wet weather - any tips you have tried?

I got this one around late April/early May on Ebay. I kept it on my windowsill until it was warm enough to keep outside (brightly shaded). It stayed out there for a while until some animal came and repeatedly (at night) knocked over some of my smaller plants. I wound up losing 2 other plants.

So I brought it back in and left it on a south windowsill with mostly strong dappled light. I water and misted it often, sometimes every day, sometimes twice a day. I am probably going to put this in a smaller tank where I can up the heat and humidity a bit as I keep my house very cold in the winter. It definitely needs to have an eye kept on it as the spikes dry out very quickly. If I had more humidity this thing would probably bloom more consistently.

that makes sense about the humidity, but not so sure about temps - intermediate temps should be enough. Happy growing!
