Hi Funky

Just as i was asking if the plant can be pulled out well today it was a heavy rain and the pot fell to the ground and the charcoal and its roots were exposed but the charcoal sticked to it nicely and i realised that the pot is to small cos the roots are getting squashed.My balcony is is quite hot i can put 1-2 inch of water and exposed it to direct sun and about the next day its bone dry
Ken, that's perfectly normal. phals have sticky roots that cling to every available surface.. BTW, phals do NOT take full sun.. You will badly burn your plant if you give it too much light. Although phals have succulent leaves, they usually take drying out quite badly..
