hmmm I dont think in a few months the water is going to be your issue seeing your plants in the windowsill.

big floofy catts big floofy intergenerics big floofy plants need big floofy spaces.

go smaller next time you will be much happier with the outcome

use the right fertilizer for it and that's the best you can hope for.

Rainwater will require a different treatment for using fertilizer bec the ph is typically lower and into the acidic range.

Your tapwater should be nuetral. And why it doesnt do anything for you or your plants

Luckily they're not literally on my windowsill Even though I have a fair amount of space, I think you're right about it filling up! I know that Coelogyne will get big fast - it's already climbing out of the pot and just got two more leads this week. Normally I post about my miniatures in my orchidarium that get distilled water and are kept at a set temp and humidity at all times.
