I would deflask them soon- they look like mine did when I deflasked them 3 months ago, and mine are growing nicely. I put them into a compot with sphagnum. I initially had a plastic bag loosely over the pot, but I opened it for air, and so I could mist it, once a day. I put them under artificial light and out of the window light for a month. Now they are in the sunny window but behind a fern.
Are yours Cattleya dowiana, like mine?

They really are ready right now, they look great. They could wait 2 months but could be misshapen if they run out of room to grow.
