If you can cover the top of the roots that helps. I have put a layer of sphag on occasions and that really helps keeping the top a bit more humid. You can always spray the top every few days. Just my I would not soak in Superthrive seeing you just gave it KLN.

Keep us posted it's sounding like you are doing fine!

I now have 4 root numbs and it even started to anchor a little... but then unfortunately when I pulled the bamboo stake out to check the water and the plant came up with it so it got displaced.

I've been trying to up the humidity in my apartment by putting a muffin tin filled with water over my heat vents and I created a makeshift humidity tray.

It looks like its doing ok, despite all the abuse. I'm hoping my sun room warms up enough soon that I can leave it in there and forget about it for awhile.
