Pot sizes.

[bil]

Not wishing to start a fight, but I keep seeing people post that certain orchids do better in a small pot.

Is this true? Ignore the fact that in smaller pots you can pack more onto the bench. Is there any quantifiable evidence that shows they are better in small pots?

Again, fine media in a wide deep pot is a potential killer, but that's not the point, because a wide shallow pot won't have that problem.
