Quick question - what's it potted in? Handsome plant, btw :)

Thanks for all the kind comments.

If I were to use a certain vendor's pricing, the plant would be valued at $400-450 with a projected increase of $50/month. :D

Ooops, I read it wrong... It's planted in peat/perlite/orchid bark. I will try adding aquatic potting soil and charcoal to the mix when I repot

Thanks! I have all my neps on a regular feeding schedule of 1/4 strength MaxSea and coffee. It's basically: fertilize, flush 3 days later, water weekly for the next 3 weeks, coffee, flush 3 days later, water weekly for the next 3 weeks, fertilize, etc.

Man this has got to be one of the most impressive species even at a very small age. Great setup and props on getting it all dialed in. Those plants are loving it in there!

I don't know if I should be happy that I'm on the top of the waiting list in case anyone backs out in Spring or sad that I'm the first one that didn't make the cut. :down:
