Default

ok.
i felt similarly, but i'm very new and don't have too many details on what this plant would like.

would you suggest:
a) attempting to remove the old spag? it's quite old but i don't want to harm the roots.

b) how much more? we're looking at a dime-sized area of spag at most, but i'm wondering just how far to bump it up - nickel-sized? i don't want to cause rot

c) should i attempt to remove those staples? the plant is well-fastened to the stick so i don't think they're useful - unless i'm going to wind the new spag threads through there?

any input would be helpful.

as for light i could move it back to where it has been hanging but any closer to the window and it'll get direct light for a lot of the day and very low temperatures in winter... it will also move away from the humidity of the water-loving orchid's pot.
hard to tell which one is the most helpful for it now but i won;t be able to do more light AND more humidity unless the extra spag covers that...
