What do you feed that monster?

I picked up a couple of them this summer. The first one had an old spike. The second one was in bloom at a show and I decided I didn't want to wait on the first one. Both combined wouldn't add up to yours in size!

I got my plant only in May, and it was already pretty big, but it did grow a bunch through our summer. It is true that all my orchids get most of the feeding in summer time since I do fertilize all at these months. It is combo of DynaGrow fertilizer and 15-5-15 fertilizer (palm food), which are the numbers Kawamoto suggested to me (they do use only this fertilizer for all nursery plants). I add seaweed and once a month MagiCal. This plant get soaking 2x a week and misting in between if needed.
