I hate spider mites. It's now at the stage where in future I will be using an acaricide as a preventative on my Catasetinae. They got in again this year and caused problems despite me being aware of the potential problem.

Expect heavy losses due to their fragility. When they are this early in this stage, they are extremely fragile to handle. They usually don't have many roots. Some will only have one root per vine. They are susceptible to desiccation and disease as well. On top of that, they have to grow from vine-like to a plant with pseudobulbs. That will take quite a bit of time.

Well, this is partly to see how it goes, as well as wanting those actual plants
In Europe, you can search thru every damn online shop for Catasetinae, hardly anyone has any. Hit an American site and you have a choice of hundreds.
You guys have no idea how lucky you are to have such choice.
