So ... stop watering, and start again when roots on new growths get to 4-5" long, regardless of whether that nubbin is a growth or spike?

A couple of fragrant yellow orchids -- any ideas?

Picked these up yesterday... the first one (with the white tip on the labellum) smells kind of lemony; the other one's scent kind of reminds me of freesias.

Any ideas, folks?
