  • A well hydrated Oncidium - turns out to have quite poor roots and, of course, two plants in the pot.

    Thank you for posting this, I have a similar situation with an oncidium and I’m quite new to taking care of them! I’ll have to repot mine and do the same

    So nice to see you growing oncidiums! They've been a favorite of mine, but I don't think you were too fond of them in the past. xxo

    Thanks for the tutorial. It turns out I did a similar feat with my first Oncidium a few months ago, so your video has comforted me and affirmed this novice's decisions. My spring purchase, in spike, had been potted entirely in sphagnum, which never dried even if I waited 3 weeks; I was afraid I'd encourage root rot. An orchid society member suggested removing the plant to inspect the roots; as I feared, there was a small amount of root rot, so I decided to repot in bark/perlite/charcoal. But when? It had just begun to open its 87 flowers. I proceeded with the repot anyway, and am glad I did since the plant did not protest, and the bloom cycle came to a timely close 2 months after it began, so I was lucky in spite of breaking the rule of Thou shalt not repot an orchid in bloom.

      I've repotted many orchids in bloom - as long as the buds are open, it seems fine. Unopened buds may blast.

    Mine was the same just roots on the oldest bulb, reminded me of the Sweet Sugar they also grow new bulbs without making new roots

    Quick question Roger...have you ever seen an oncidium with cream coloured stripes along the edges of the leaves, just one stripe along each edge? I bought one in Florida at a farmers market pre covid and have it in my collection. I have never seen another . Regards, from Canada.

    Let us know how they progress. I have had a similar situation with a Brassia inter. Some of these really creep. Thank you for your time again. That is such a good idea; how you planted yours! Do you still have your Brassia?

      I have two Brassias - Sea Breeze and Santa Barbara - both growing ok and as the bulbs are heading toward maturity, they should spike soon.

    Do grow stone resemble gravel or pumice stones? Does it retain water or just open up air pockets in the media?

    Oncidium types with tendency to climb are not easy to grow in the pot ( oh,my don't I know it ). Difficult to keep the roots getting into the media, but we all try, right? ☺️.Hope this one will grow nicely for you. 🤞🍀.

    • @GrowingOrchidswithRoger
      @GrowingOrchidswithRoger  Рік тому +1

      As long as there is a good root base in the pot, some climbing bulbs doesn't matter so much.
