Default To mount or...

I just received these two, Angraecum diderii and Laelia lundii from Hausermann. I'm trying to decide whether to mount them, pot them in bark, or semi hydro. They will be grown in the tent with similar conditions year round. Any opinions? (I know, I'm leaving myself open.

I definitely vote mount! I think you need a small grow tent with auto misters specifically designed for mounts.

I'd love to do that, but I'd have to figure out how to catch the runoff. I don't think Mrs. Dusty would appreciate standing water on her tile floor, especially since we're trying to sell this place. Happy wife and all that.

Wait.....Did you say SMALL?! I just upgraded to a bigger tent!
