Semihydro update: the one month report

[ScottMcC]

Almost exactly one month ago I posted about a cattleya that I divided and transferred from standard bark culture to semihydroponics.

During this time, it's done nothing but grow like a weed. At one point daughter plant A started smelling a little like feet, so I used some physan and it cleared right up. Other than that, I've had no problems. I've been watering it about once a week (when the reservoir nears emptiness) with MSU @125 ppm N, using the fill the pot completely method according to Ray's instructions.

So...without further ado, a few pictures.
