Mine shun the light like crazy.

Well, when they were in pots, mine seldom left the media, or if they did, they died back promptly. I don't know what my humidity is, but a friend from a dry area did comment that we had quite high humidity by his standards.
I don't like the trad pots because I don't see the point in cramping the roots. When they do go out thru such holes when I buy an orchid, I always curse because I know those roots are screwed when I repot in something bigger.

Here is one I watered earlier today. I just grabbed one easy to reach, and to be fair, this is an extreme example of roots all over. I Pad picture won't orient itself correctly. But the tag shows my pot date of Mar, 2015 when I got it bare root from Ching Hua and almost rootless. The roots in the pot are still wet and therefore green. They will turn white, just like a Phal root when they are dry.

Here is a better example. I am just re-potting this one and quickly sprayed the roots at the sink after getting it out of its clear pot. This had been potted in June 2015 and obviously needs a new pot. All the roots after spraying are very green,.
