Those look incredible!! How do you manage to avoid water drips? I'd love to do something like this one day

So I water them by placing them on a tray for twenty minutes. They are quite soggy at that point so I put them on a dry plate to drip or in my sink on a wire shelf. But the orchid moss is so absorbent they can be quite wet and not really drip

Also if I'm impatient and put them back too early and they drip on the floor I just wipe it up 😂
