Thank you, all. This one seems to be growing well.
Philippe, I'm not sure. This one seems to grow vigorously (compared to others). It is at the edge of growth tent, so it is probably getting a bit less light (I'm guessing 100micromol/m^2/s or less). Air humidity is high (probably around 80-90%), but I don't water frequently (every 5 days or so, which is probably less than ideal for this plant). I use 30ppmN whatever fertilizer (I think it is either K-Lite or Grow More 30-10-10 and occasionally Fish Emulsion recently) all the time. It is about 27C/15C most of the time (it is in the basement, so there is some yearly fluctuation, but it is small). The potting media is Med. Fir Birk:Sponge Rock (Medium Perlite): feather moss from the backyard: quartz sand:Carquest UltraSorb 100% Diatomaceous Earth = 5:2:2:1:0.5. In the first year I added lime stone chips (much bigger than pebbles) to the bottom of the pot with good growth, but I forgot to do it in 2016 (the last time when I repotted).
Marvelous culture and plant. Any tips to share ?
