Orchid Focus Repotting Mix is composed of selected and high-quality bark that contributes to the superior balance of air and moisture content. This is essential for orchids.
Why Transplant an Orchid:
Orchids should be repotted every 12-18 months to replace the bark, which breaks down over time and begins to hold too much water. Repotting will rejuvenate the orchid and encourage vigorous growth and reblooming.
What you will need:
In addition to Orchid Focus Repotting Mix , you will also need scissors or a scalpel or a sharp knife and a transparent container of the appropriate size. Clear pots support root photosynthesis and make it easy to see if water is needed.
When to Repot an Orchid:
The best time to transplant Phalaenopsis is in spring or fall; best avoided during the height of summer. Avoid repotting when the plant is in bloom.
How to Plant a Phalaenopsis Orchid
- Prepare the orchid by watering it the day before or soaking it for a while before transplanting, this way the orchid will loosen easily and the old potting soil will be easily removed.
- Squeeze and bend the old pot so you can easily remove the orchid.
- Carefully remove the old bark and loosen the roots. Rinse carefully in cool water, this will help wash away the old crusts.
- Remove any dead or damaged roots and dead flower stems with a sterile knife or scissors. Trim all long roots to about 15cm. (6 ").
- You will need a new pot that is larger than the old one, or if you have to use a pot that is the same size, you will need to remove a lot of roots.
- Place a thin layer of new soil in the bottom of the new pot.
- Lower the roots into the pot, holding the orchid in the center of the pot with one hand (the roots should be below the edge of the pot), filling the spaces around the roots with new soil.
- Holding the orchid in place, add more soil and shake the pot to make sure all the empty spaces are filled with the new soil.
- Spray the plant and upper bark with Orchid Myst or water. This will reduce the moisture that is lost through the leaves. Give the plant a few days for damaged or injured roots to heal and then resume normal watering.
