Psychopsis is making new growths and I'm nervous


The psychosis is making two new growths, and I'm really nervous about it. We have killed one of these plants before because water got down in the new growth and caused rot. The tricky thing is that the growth can be fully mature before it rots, which I don't really understand. I have been super careful about water it. I've mostly been trying to water it just by soaking it instead of watering it from the top. I wait a long time between waterings because it's planted in coconut husk which holds a lot of water. We've sliced holes in the plastic of the pot to allow for more airflow since it's not hot like a greenhouse with us. I am hopeful that everything will go well!
