I'm a health care worker and recently an orchid farmer donated orchids to my hospital as a thank you gift during the corona-virus outbreak. I was worried i wouldn't be able to take care of my orchid and it would die but Shirley is so great at teaching and explaining the basics. Thank you so much for this video I hope my orchid lives a long happy life with me

I was blessed to find you when searching for a video, so I followed your steps to repot and noticed that the plant had her roots in a little cup with dirt. You mentioned they don’t grow in dirt but on branches, so I cleaned her up, and looking forward to her thriving! God bless, and have a very happy Christmas!

I've had an orchid for 5 yeas [Olivia] given as a gift and named after one of my students that had really long big Rapunzel-like hair. It was the star of the show because it bloomed so much on my kitchen window. Then this spring I had the BIG idea to re-pot it and made some mistakes which I've just realised here from your show. It wasn't doing well at all dropped didn't boom as much as before and pretty much is hanging on for life. I was so overwhelmed with guilt I wanted to cry . It is like losing a baby . Now, I know what to do I'm so relieved. Knowledge is power thank you so much!

Thank you for the video. I think I have overwatered my my three orchids and would like to repot them to stop potential root rot. The leaves are starting to look a little dehydrated (not all of them, mostly the older ones). Problem is, two of the three orchids have started growing keikis! There's proper leaves on the flower spike, not just secondary spikes. I want to save the mother plants but also the babies! What do I do? :( Is it safe for the mother plant and the keikis to repot them now? Keikis take time to grow and I don't think the mother can pull through for this long. But also I've read that repotting while in bloom can make flowers fade faster. My orchids aren't blooming at the moment so I don't care about the flowers but I just don't want to endanger the keikis... I am so insecure when it comes to orchids.

@EdenMakers 5 жыл бұрын

Hi Mag, I am happy you found my video helpful. The keikis need to have a vigorous root system, at least 1 inch long before you transplant it. Don't worry if it doesn't survive. Gardening is a learning experience. Every "seeming" fail will make you a better gardener. Please feel free to post photos with further questions on my facebook page "Edenmakers by Shirley Bovshow" if you have further questions.

Hi Shirley, I bought an orchid at the store on liquidation. It was in barks and had no stem just two huge leaves. I'm wondering how to get it to grow back its stem. Can I also leave the plant under a bag to have a moist environment?

Hi there, Antoinette! You can find a lot of authoritative information on orchids at the American Orchid Society website, which is www.AOS.org. I think the purified water should be fine.

It's a no no to remove old, decomposed medium from the pot you are going to repot and let it fall with your fresh medium.... asking for trouble as there could be diseases, fungus or bugs lurking in that old medium. Also the removing of dry roots should not be allowed to be dumped in or near the fresh new medium. The old medium along with the old dry roots should removed onto a paper, and discarded. You wish to keep your new fresh medium as healthy as you can and away from the old.

@EdenMakers 5 жыл бұрын

@@debramcleod5050 Hi Debra I agree with Juliette and Over the Moon, (although I removed that persons comment for troll activity on my videos). You need to use fresh bark, (as explained in video) and keep it away from the old bark. All proper protocol is explained in detail in the video including disinfecting the plants when needed. My challenge was that I had this tiny tub to do my demonstration and had nowhere to discard the old bark. I did leave it in front of the new pile of bark and did not pull from it when repotting. In hindsight, I should have clarified, "Make sure to keep the old and new mix away from each other." I still stand behind my information. It is solid and has been successful in 20 years as a horticulture professional. There are a lot of things that are not mentioned in videos that are done at the spur of the moment. It's just difficult to think of every detail when you are teaching extemporaneously. That is why these comments are useful, to bring up these details and clarify, refute, or be corrected. I'm all for fruitful conversation and I have no problem accepting correction! This person though, is commenting about how much they "hate" that my videos are popular, and there just in no place for that on my channel. My purpose is to build people up and teach them techniques that will make them successful. That is why I reply to 100% of all comments. Thank you for your time reading my comment. This is a great alert for me to be extra vigilent of my visuals as much as what I actually say to do.

It is a mistake to make blanket statements like sphagnum holds too much moisture and is going to drown your plant. It is going to be entirely dependent on climate whether or not it is a good choice for a medium. In a temperate climate, like NJ or NY, it might be a problem, especially in winter. For growers in hot regions, like myself in FL or those in AZ or southern CA, sphagnum is not an issue. Down here, bark (especially new bark) can go bone dry in a single day and even sphagnum dries in just a few days. I can grow Phals in bark but they require near daily watering in the summer, they grow a whole lot better in sphagnum.

@EdenMakers 6 жыл бұрын

Michael McCarthy I should have made It clear That I was referring to indoor orchids, Which is where most people across the country keep their moth orchids year round. The number one reason most plants die is from overwatering. When orchids are overwatered and have moss As the planting media, they are more likely to experience root rot. Indoor conditions for orchids are generally consistent throughout the country no matter what the climate is outdoors. This is why I can make a general statement. Thanks for reading

Nancy Mumpton Hi Nancy thank you for watching and commenting! I replied again to Michael to clarify that I am referring to indoor orchid care. It does not matter where you live or your outdoor climate, Indoor conditions are generally consistent throughout the country. This is why I can make a general statement. Overwatering is the number one killer of plants. Moss retains more water than bark and can lead to root rot much quicker. Thank you once again

Hi Shirley, I received an orchid from Grocery Store--A gift from a friend actually. --Phalaenopsis. I am so new with orchids. I took it out of the pot and the roots were covered in this spongy mossy type stuff which looked like it was ruining the roots. I took as much of that stuff off as possible. Some would not come off because the roots really stuck to it. I took some lava rocks that I got from a neighbor and a clay pot with holes on the side and bottom. I watered it first with tap water. and placed them in the sunniest window I could find but not too sunny where they would burn. I have been able to put it out side and get some nice sun and warmth (70-80F) . I have drenched/soaked it a couple of times as well in Distilled water (2-3 days apart). I have been checking the roots and they seem to be going through a dying phase because they look dry and shriveled and some browning. I trimmed away the roots that look dead. Still using the Lava rock. Wondering what I am doing wrong. The remaining roots feel hardened and stiff and greenish to pale white. Are the roots drying out too fast? Should I drench and soak more often like everyday? Should I switch to pea size gravel? I do see another flower spike climbing up along the side of leaves. Don't want to lose anymore roots (barely has any now...) Don't want to lose spike. Any help is appreciated. Thanks Much. Mark

@EdenMakers 2 жыл бұрын

Hi Mark, Thanks for watching. It sounds like you are doing most everything right. But only water once a week and make sure that you take it to the sink and drain thoroughly. Also, be sure to not allow any water to touch the leaves if possible. Don't trim anymore roots unless absolutely sure it is dead root. All orchids do best when humidity ranges from 40% to 70% so you can mist your orchid or put a shallow tray of decorative rocks and water underneath for a more ornate look. To create this look, take a shallow tray, put a layer of decorative rocks or beads in it and add some water to the tray. Give it some time and see how it does. Hope that helps!
