🙋🏽‍♀️ I did all your tips since May. I kept an eye on the roots after repotting. I had to cut old roots and I was confident about it 😊 thanks to you! The new roots are growing better now 🥰

Hi Danni just bought 2 new orchids LAST night from our local grocery store and after watching another orchid video titled """do this immediately after buying an orchid"" medium it was in was slightly starting to smell and was very SOME roots were going BUT the vast majority of the roots were AMAZING but definitely needed a new home ....I have NEVER repotted an orchid immediately after buying BUT as this lady said most if the time within 1-2 weeks after buying ORCHIDS start losing their flowers and going FASTER then you I had everything on hand (( better pots then ones I had mistakenly bought )) the ones I have are 5 inches across and maybe 3 inches or less high clear plastic with ventilation holes on EVERY side and the roots, flowers, leaves, crown looks EXTREMELY healthy Plus LOADS of flowers still to gave them a BIT of fertizler in the new medium NOT on top but where it would be damp and (( NOT much )) and gave it a good enough watering to clear out the dust from the New medium. Hoping I can keep these ones blooming for awhile yet !!! And the OLD medium it was in was VERY tight around the root system I had to dig a bit to get it FREE and there definitely was a smell and I think slight mold was starting ....but I rinsed it off under slight warm water to NOT shock it and then used water & hydrogen peroxide (( as you mentioned ))) and sprayed all the roots and the root crown before repotting :)) Hoping I am on the right track tried hard following your steps in your vids on repotting using some cinnamon were necessary.

I am constantly having root die off and did not know why. Now I know it's normal for establish roots yo die off. Very frustrating but relieved its common

Thanks for the tip on wet orchid medium after 1 week...I had an Oncidium that was wet after two weeks, plus I noticed very little root growth....pulled it out of the pot and it was planted in all sphagnum the plant and Island Girl...

[purplethumb]

I agree with not soaking the bark before (re)potting. I don't have the time or patience anyway. I always water after repotting. I don't have any scientific evidence, but I believe it reduces the stress.

[susanbeson]

Thank you Danni! I am going to help 2 friends repot their orchids tomorrow. I learned everything about orchids from your channel. They are so simple, clear and encouraging! I have not seen a video guiding what to do after repot and there it was today. I will lead them to your channel.

[mkweber]

Yay! My phals are repotted and, after a month, the roots are happy and growing...right out the holes in the pot and strangling themselves! Since I just repotted, I've been trying to cut the hole a little bigger. If I can, I try to tuck the baby root back in, but many times - they just choked themselves and break. Suggestions? Different pot ? bigger bark with bigger holes slits in the pot. I'm just imagining trying to repot them in the future and having to cut roots with more girth to get them out of the pot. Yikes!

Tip #5 made such a huge difference in my orchids’ health, especially oncidiums! (You had mentioned it in a previous tutorial but I don’t remember which one.) I’ve watched all of the tutorials, some of them multiple times, and I keep learning more each time.

My Mom had stopped caring for her Phaleonopsis orchids, about 10 of them thst are all about 6 years old. Much rot and dirty pots in standing water. I scrubbed all pots, peroxided the roots, wiped the leaves with alcohol wipes. I THEN discovered your channel and wish I had put them in clear pots with holes THEN back in her decorative pots. It’s been a month, they all look ok. Can I repot at this point or do I have to wait a year?

[cmoe]

I literally just repotted my Orchids 3 days again and this video popped up on my uploads feed

[ItsMeCheryl]

I just re-potted a Phalaenopsis. I have what would probably be considered cheaper medium, so I sifted the very fine stuff out of the medium first. Should I have left it in? (There was quite a bit as I am at the bottom of the bag, and it was quite fine.) I sprayed the roots with 3% peroxide just in case, then took her from a 2" pot and went to a clear ventilated 4" pot, and then placed that into a larger ceramic ventilated pot. So far she is looking just fine!

Hi Danny, great tips as always. Thank you so much!!

[naomidelfino]

Thanks that i've found your channel.❤❤❤

[shmuelleib]

Hi Danny! Do you recommend fertilizing with the first watering, after repotting, or is it better to wait a little bit? Let's say one doesn't use any slow release fertilizer and the medium doesn't have any provided nutrients? Thank you 😊

[Claudio_Widianto]

Hey Danny! In the intro of your video, I saw your lovely Phalaenopsis pulcherrima in blooms and they are really beautiful and cute at the same time, could you make a video dedicated to it, because finding its care and culture is so tricky?

[Dr.Piedra]

You should try adding some rootex or any other auxin (the cheaper the better) when you are repoting, it works amazing with every orchid genre with great results. My Phalaenopsis are super healthy even better than brand new plants. The bag of rootex cost aroun 4 dollars but there is enoguh for over 1000 orchis you shoul try it. The best of this is that it works for propagation of monopodial orchis y have a lot of Phalaenopsis by just cuting them in half and adding rootex in the wounds. (sorry for the shitty english and great videos btw)

[sarieputh]

Do you still clean your orchid leaves with lemon water?

[sandrag]

I don't water after repotting, tried it twice. (Phal. Schilleriana and a cattleya hybrid.)
There is allways some damage after repotting.
Most of the roots rotted in a few days.
On the other hand they don't mind getting dry for some days.

[shawntikachapman]

I repotted my orchid but I do have two leafs in between some good ones that’s are a little limp. What should I do??

[patrickmiller]

So I just reported my orchid, from your tips and amazing videos by the way! But before I repotted it I lost 3 leaves, why I don’t know, I wish I could show you a picture of mine and tell me what you think. The 3 leaves I have left look healthy and beautiful I assume lol, just wish I could show you a picture. Anyway thank you so much for all your help. Now gonna watch this video and hopefully learn more. ❤❤❤❤
