What is their current medium, and how moist do you keep it?

Hey Ray. They're in a spahgum moss bark mix, though I can't tell you what kind of bark. I dont let them dry out completely, just until the roots just start to lose their green hues. That is about 1 week in between waterings. There is some humidity here in Atlanta... surprise, so I'm hoping that'll be similar with the new setup. Let me know what you think. They're probably going in S/H regardless, its just a matter of when

Having begun my orchid journey in the Big A, I fully understand.

Swap those suckers out. You've been keeping the constant moist already (I'm assuming for an appreciable time), so the switch is a no brainer.

Thanks Ray. Going on vacation for a bit, but when I get back look out for my order. Thanks for your help!

Joanne -- I had book marked that link a few months ago for when I decided to dive into S/H. Now it doesn't work anymore! Do you know why? or has it moved somewhere else?

Thanx-
Katie
