Do you have any pictures to post? Not sure if it would help us help you....but we would love to see pictures

I am growing mine in a pot as well. I left it in the clay pot it came in....I noticed too that mine seems to dry out quickly so I have started to mist the top layer just enough to moisten it for a day or so to hold it over in between waterings....I could only imagine how quickly yours is drying out since you are not growing in an orchidarium like I am! On another note...my moss is quite wet after watering and it hasn't seemed to bother the 'chid much....so if this is what you are referring to as the moss either to wet or to dry then I wouldn't' really worry about it! Hope this helps some! It sounds like you are doing a great job with it! Don't forget ...pictures, pictures, pictures!
