      What should I do if I have like cut mark on my oldest phal it’s on one of the oldest leaf but the leaf looks pretty good except for that cut place which I didn’t do that it’s like it’s too heavy n it cuts itself I’m always careful when I put it in the bathtub to wet it so do I need to cut it off even though it looks good

I put the outside roots inside the new pot, and now I see that I need to let it be like that, I am worry 😭 did I messed up??? Should I repot again and take those roots outside? Heeelp

    My orchid has lost 3 of it's bottom leaves and seems to be losing another leaf too, but it had new leaf growth at the same time and the 'stem' is doing very well. It's top leaves seem fine but there's one large leaf that's drooping and i think it has something got to do with humidity. Hopefully it's not dying.

    Thank you for your videos! Since I found them not long ago, I have discovered that a brand new Phalaenopsis, still in flower, was suffocating in its pot - most roots gone! Same with an older one which had never rebloomed. Moss media in both. Used a bark media mix to repot both and they are looking better already (and the flowering one is still flowering!). Used your watering and care tips for another one (the one that almost killed my other orchids when it came into my house with mealy bugs hiding in the media). Three years after treating it (and the others) and repotting all of them it finally has a flower stalk! One of the other mealy bug infected ones is now getting a new leaf. Just one is still in recovery but will probably do so. You are great!

    I have 15 phaleonopsis orchids. I have them grouped together because it is the only area that has perfect light. They do very well and they get new flower spikes. I just have some that have a lot of roots outside the medium. Some I’ve reported that were like this. Should I be repotting them to put some of the roots back under the potting soil?

    Hi Danni! i had to come by today (well, I visit everyday to watch at least one video) to "Thank You" for the cool way you show us how to re-pot orchids. I tried the bark/sphagnum moss method this week and it is keeping my orchids nice and hydrated enough where I did not have to water them everyday. I actually didn't mind watering them each day (well, I only have 2 orchids at the moment) but sometimes life happens and I could not get to it. Problem solved with sphagnum moss!! :)
    Now, I will work on trying to get them to bloom this year. :) .....more to learn, and more videos to watch. Thanks Danni (...and please, if you see this, please let me know if I am spelling your name correctly haha). :)

There's is no correct way of spelling my name since it's not an English name, but I make it sounds like it lol so spell it however you like. I spell it like Danny, looks more intriguing 😂 (in reality it should be Dani, which is boring lol)

    I am learning so much about phalaenopsis care that I now only buy in the discount section, (so I get them with the pretty ceramic decorative pot at 50% off), and I save them 80% of the time.

    • @icemancometh8679
      @icemancometh8679 4 роки тому

      Be careful sometimes they're discounted because they might have a problem- in one of Danny's videos she found snails - II bought a cheap Orchid and they had cleaned it up but when I got it home it had scale ( look that up) spread like wildfire so check them over good.

Do I remove it from the medium to do it? They are at the top of the medium, and could be snipped easily. I also just rescued her, and she was repotted about 6 weeks ago. Thanks!

    Hello
    Thank you for all your videos
    Es wondering if it’s safe to report orchids often?
    I just repottted my orchid but I’m not happy with the mixture I used. Is it safe to report again?
    Thank you
