Smile Phrag pot preference when using Leca

Hi guys, if you are growing Phrags in Leca, do you use any pot in particular? Right now I am using the opaque white pots with the slits up the side. I am planning on switching to the air cone white opaque in the near future.

As I said before I do not have my pphrags in leca but I have a paph and another plant (no idea what it is off the top of my head) in PrimeAgro and I am using deli containers. I heat up a nail and punch 4 holes around the container up 1 inch from the bottom.

I grow my Phrags in "standard" opaque white S/H pots... no need to say they grow in S/H

I grow all my orchids in clear pots with the raised centres, because I like to see the roots. When algal growth becomes a problem, I slip the pots inside opaque containers.
