WaterW, for my orchids that like to stay "continuously moist" I either put A: the holes higher up the sides, B: put traditional "two holes one inch up the side" pots in another container where I can raise the water level above the two holes level, C: Do the same as B but put orchids in open net-pots inside another container where I can control the water level. The advantage of C is that, being in a net pot, it is very quick and easy to flush water through it, then just put the net-pot back into the reservoir container. One option for you with taller containers would be to water more often, perhaps. There are so many ways to approach s/h but at the end, what's critical is the roots receive the moisture/air they require- right?
