I recently de-flasked some rhyncostylis gigantea... they are currently in 2in plastic pots with smallbark, pumice and just a bit of spag+perlite... there ate in a seedling tray with dome to keep high humidity...

Can i ask how long do they need to be in this high humidity space? What sign should i watch out for to avoid issues?
 
Much of the answer depends upon the humidity of your growing area. If it’s high, there may be no need to wait, but I’d err on the conservative side. The idea is to get them used to the new (normal) conditions, gradually.

Take the dome off for an hour. The next day two, and so on.

Thanks for the advise!!!
