Its time to re-pot when you see: yellow foliage, lack of growth or blues, dead or damage roots, or the plant starts growing over the edge of the pot. The best time to re-pot is just after flowering, or when new growth appears Watering: Orchid should be water just as they dry out (in general this is at least once a month). Test the potting mix with your fingers. If it feels dry, add warm water thoroughly until the water runs freely from drainage holes. Do not allow plants to sit in water Light: Not giving orchids enough light is one of the most common reasons for failure to bloom.

Oh my! Just repotted a baby orchid in these big chunks of wood....roots had rotted from peat moss....any advice? Thanks so much!** A: Remove any dead, black, or mushy roots. Then put your plant in a bath of 1 part Hydrogen Peroxide to 2 parts water and gently kind of swish it around a little. You should hear fizzing. Remove, drain, and repot in fresh potting soil. If your reusing the same pot, disinfect it with 1 part chlorine bleach to 9 parts water, and wash thoroughly. **Q: Can i use for jewel orchid ludisia discolor?** A: This is not the best for that type of orchid. Jewel orchids like to have their toes moist all the time. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Definitely needs to soak before using and after potting the orchid the pot needs re-soaking the next day as the bark initially i *by A***R on 9 September 2016* Just as described.
