I have the same plant - growing in a slat basket of coconut husk fiber - and

breeze, so dries out rapidly.
About 6 weeks ago or so (8-10?), it had five spikes all in full bloom.
I would guess yours simply does not yet have the "mass" needed to bloom, so
patience is the key.
I thought your web page on s/h specifically stated tolumnias don't like
s/h culture, I believe the quote is " DO NOT try any tolumnias in S/H
culture - they just don't go for it!"
When did "slat basket of coconut husk fibre" become SH?
Although I expect to be dividing my Tolumnia popoki sooner or later
and trying a division in a SH pot directly in front of a fan.
