Wow, such a phenomenal thread!  Even more amazing these little guys are already flowering!  

So I'm assuming these are still in the original medium you first planted them in?

Same soil mix from beginning, the pots are the same since June/July 2018.

Thanks.  I thought this was the case, just wanted to be certain.  So being that this is a soil less mixture, how often and what are you feeding them?

Now during summer when they are growing healthily and are flowering I add to each watering a mineral fertilizer (COMPO N-P-K+ 7:3:6), but much more diluted (1/4 to 1/3) than recommended. The watering rate depends on the season and the temperatures. This species is very sensitive to wet soil when the temps are low. N°1602 died for that reason I guess, although there was no sign of root rot at all.

Sad indeed to read that one was lost, especially after so long.
