Laelia anceps - Dry sheath

[Roberta]

I would water the whole thing. How often? You will have to see how fast it dries. Your temperatures are still rather cool (actually, nearly identical to mine). I think with the rather small amount of bark that you have in there, it will dry quite fast, especially if the sun is bright and the humidity is not high. I would guess that every 2-3 days for water would be OK, increase frequency as day length and sun intensity increase. Once you get to summer, you could water this every day and it would be happy because I expect that it will dry quickly.
