Saving Pachara Delight seedling!

[Vanda lover]

With the large bark, isn't it difficult to tell when they need water? I like sphag and charcoal because if the orchid is in a basket, it dries quickly and it is easy to tell when it is dry. I find that I only need to water my large vanda once a week in the winter this way, but the smaller the plant the more often I need to water.
