I currently have all my Phals in opaque plastic pots with holes drilled for drainage or in clay orchid pots that I had laying around. Which are the better pot, clear or opaque? I've read various posts on other sites that some say clear is better so you can monitor the roots and how the medium is doing as far as how wet or dry it is. Some say it doesn't matter. So I've been debating with myself whether to switch the next time I repot which won't be for awhile with all the flower spikes I have coming up. Any advice would be appreciated.
