Questions about humidity
Can s/h be an effective replacement for a high humidity environment? Can an orchid requiring a humid atmosphere be effectively/successfully grown in s/h if the ambient humidity is less than would normally be required for a particular orchid? Is humidity equally or more important for the roots than it is for the leaves of a plant?
I'm considering buying an orchid which apparently doesn't do all that well outside of a highly humid environment (phal gigantia), but it's far too large for any humidity case I could set up. Most phals seem to do well in s/h, but this one is known to be somewhat temperamental. I don't want to buy it unless I know it has a good chance at surviving and blooming.
