Default About containers

hello to everybody! I have a question (well, a couple of them) and i hope you can help me with them

So, about containers that can be user for SH. I can find a lot of orchid pots with holes in them and that is what confuses me and i`ll tell you why.

1. If i use pot with holes in the bottom of the pot with plastic saucer as a water reservoir - should i provide additional holes in the pot for better air movement?

2. if i do NOT have to make them than is it the same as using, for example glass vases without holes and with some water on the bottom of the vase? I saw some people grow orchids like that, but i have some concerns about that method and the main is air movement.

3. if i should provide extra holes in the pot - how many? because i saw some pots with pre-made holes in them from bottom to the top and i just think that it can be too much air and for some orchids, especially for those that love moisture it will be too dry.

4. If anybody has an experience with any food containers that you use for SH - can you recommend any brands? amazon has tons of them

thanks in advance!
P.S. sorry for possible mistakes - English is not my native
