I would agree that the dry period I give does not sound right. After I first obtained this plant I grew it like my other odonts, and it did not flower. Subsequently, for me, it did not set an inflorescence if watered after the new growth; and the buds blasted if watered after the buds appeared. It never did well until I kept it dry from new growth to flowering-usually about 6 months. I have since obtained an AM, and 9 years later a CCM, so it has done fairly well. Although it did not win the final award, it was the official nominee from the Northeast Judging Center for the Duggar Award (best Odontoglossum) for 2003.
