Phals can successfully be grown mounted, potted in plastic
pots or in clay pots, with, or without slots, and even in semi-hydro
culture. It depends on your growing conditions, your watering tendencies,
and the medium you use. Think of it in terms of the needs of the
plant. Phals, not having much in the way of water storage capacity, like
to stay evenly moist.
If you grow in very humid conditions, or if you grow in a
medium that REALLY holds water well, or if you prefer to water frequently, then
there is no reason not to grow in slotted, clay pots.
