I've tried everything to get my phal to bloom. Still nothing. I've gotten 3 new leaves and many roots over past 3 years but no spikes. Once I managed to get a spike when I trimmed it right above a node that was further down the stalk but have never gotten a spike from scratch. I've put them in cooler temps after blooming, I've tried feeding and not feeding. The fun of orchids is wearing thin now after having them in cooler temps all winter, the roots that went down into the growing media are now dying. I'm about to give up.

Saw this video about 1.5 months ago and came back to say that this REALLY WORKED! IM so happy! I decided to try it on an orchid that only 2 had roots. I didn't see any new growth or change at all for 2 weeks. Nevertheless I decided to leave it in a new fresh cup of water and forget about it. Another 2 weeks later and I finally actually see really 2 tiny new green little roots peaking out of the base of the orchid!!! I was so shook and happy when I saw them! Im definitely going to try this technique with another orchid that has zero roots, yet is still growing a new leaf (showing that it really doesn't want to die off yet). It definitely pays off to be patient and not give up on your orchid even if it takes several weeks just to see some new root growth! I'm so happy to finally see my orchids coming back to life again 😭✨

I have such respect for those who care for plants. I especially enjoy the fact that a young man cares for orchids in a way that speaks to my heart. The only thing that could ever match the beauty of an orchid is the soul that nurtures it. You have a wonderful, calm demeanor, and I hope to see/hear more of your orchid tips here. I had fun removing my two rescues from their pots, cleaning out the old bark medium, and placing them both into one gorgeous crystal bowl for water-culture. They are sitting next to my two rescue Fiddle Leaf Figs, and the lot brings me joy. The larger orchid is in bloom, with another flower shoot forming. The other orchid has barely any roots, and is sending a flower spike into the ionosphere! I love learning about, testing, and observing nature, and there is nothing to match the hands-on experience.

gforce you sound exactly like me!! I love each orchid and houseplant I own. I feel amazing nurturing a once sick plant to health again. Especially Discount orchids. I’m now here in California for school and can’t film my orchids back home in Ontario. But my sis sends me pics of them a lot of them are recovered and blooming! I wish I could take some vids but I’m going home in a few months and I can then. Stay tuned and keep me updated on your orchids. Sounds like you did a good thing by transferring them to water culture and hope they bloom soon.

I’ve loved orchids and now have 6 😊 I purchased in Aug a mini and after it bloomed reported it and found it had no living roots or aerial roots 😩 I am trying your way with placing in a glass of water. What happens after it starts growing roots though when you pot it up? I heard any change in media the roots that are not accustomed to being in what you pot them in will die!

I'm really excited to know I'm doing things right and hope all the orchids I've rescued are able to live longer. I've watched a lot of KZfaq videos and yours is by far one of the best I've seen.

@nonmihiseddeo41815 жыл бұрын
I came to this channel, because I have a small phal (not a mini) that was a kiki. I separated it from its parent. It had nice roots, 4 leaves symmetrically growing 2 on each side (about 6 inches long each), and it was growing a new leaf at the time of separation. I potted it in fresh premium orchid medium from an orchid grower in California that was suitable for phals going into a 4-inch pot. I then went on vacation for 3 weeks. When I came home 2 weeks ago, three of my smaller orchids were suffering from shriveled and drooping leaves. All growth was stalled. Two have bounced back and are rooted in fresh orchid growing medium, but they had a couple viable roots and air roots. Only this one has shown no improvement in 2 weeks. It has one air root only, which is hanging on but has a crease in it near the base of the plant. Because it had absolutely no other roots, I am in a quandary what to do for it. Misting it with water and loosely potted in bark, I ordered Mega Thrive from the orchid grower in California, and that just came a couple days ago. I have sprayed the kiki with one treatment as a foliar booster to plain filtered water. I am encouraged by your method of saving phals with no roots, and I have this kiki in a champagne flute over water as you show, with three bamboo chopsticks to support it above the waterline, as the leaves are completely floppy. It's out of direct light, in bright indirect light (eastern facing window, since I don't have south facing). I am hopeful that I can keep it alive with foliar feeding/watering, and that your method will allow it to grow new roots. Thank you for this video, and I will update whatever the outcome.

Thank you for this video. I switched about 3 orchids last year to water but used a lot of water not just a little. They have survived in water for almost a year. I have gotten some mushy roots but cut them off. I will switch to less water as you have shown. I converted the rest of my orchids about 6 months ago and they are doing great too. Although no blooms due to no fertilizer.

Sounds good, the blooms will come once the root system is sturdy enough. If you have many roots from the water culture, I would switch to bark and moss. The orchid will take root in that and bloom for sure.

Spectacular video. Starting off with showing your blooming orchid's recovery was such a powerful way to open the video. Seeing an orchid which once had no roots looking that good is an inspiration. It gives a lot of hope an optimism to someone with an orchid that isn't doing too hot. The way you show multiple examples is helpful. Especially how you highlight that some of yours have just a few roots while others started off with none at all. I will definitely be giving your technique a try. I got my first phalaenopsis a little over a year ago. I was thrilled when I was able to get it to rebloom. It was rootbound so i repotted just recently. Unfortunately i underestimated watering needs :/ the new media i used dried out MUCH quicker than the old media and my poor lovely orchid lost a leaf and almost all of its roots. It's a blessing in disguise though. As a result of this failure i get to learn about my orchid and learn from others! So excited for the journey of nursing my plant back to health. Thank you for your clear and straightforward video. Such a source of hope!

I just rescued 3 Phalaenopsis that were drowned in too much water for a long time. I think I'm going to try your technique after I thoroughly clean and sanitize them. They have no roots at all after I trimmed them. They were all rotten. Temporary water culture method is probably the answer plus you can see what's going on. This is my first time at this. Thank you for sharing.

Hi! Here are my updates. It's been a little more than a month and all 3 of my very sick orchids in ICU have a leaf in each and 1 with 2 new roots. I am very pleased with this result. Again, thank you!

I’m so dumb and I feel terrible. I had an orchid for over 4 year but she was never repotted and she got little flys. I thought I would try to repot her and get rid of the flys but stupid me didn’t research the actual life of the plant and why it grows as it does. So I got another pot just a bit bigger, new bark potting mix like she was in. I rinsed her, cleared dead roots and repotted. Then a month later 2 of her 4 leaves went yellow and dropped. No new growth to be seen. I started reading. Really reading. What I failed to realize when I repotted her was, I stuck her aerial roots INTO the new soil! I never realized I did it. So, all but one greenish root remains. Her remaining 2 leaves still look ok. I’m grateful I found your video. I’ve cleared the dead roots and have her in my coffee press, the best glass container I have to accommodate her. Wish us luck. Ty.

Unfortunately, I have had many orchids with no roots. Water evaporates very quickly so if you have several to deal with (I have 60), letting the entire root area sit in damp moss works great and I would never use tap water for any orchid ever. I make a mixture of distilled water, kelp, and CalMag instead of just plain water. Calcium and the enzymes in kelp are very effective for root growth. I use different proportions and add orchid fertilizer for regular watering.

I'm so glad I found this video !! I accidentally overwatered one of my three orchids - its leaves were wilting from rotting roots which I accidentally mistook for underwatering since the outer portions of the roots still appeared healthy - so I'm going to try this method out and see if I can save it. Its roots are pretty messed up so I'm hoping it'll grow new roots, especially since I've already cut two thirds of them out and the remaining roots are very yellow. I'm not going down without a fight LOL

my rescue orchid is down to one leaf now. It has 2 new leaves growing but they are still tiny and take sooo long to grow compared to my healthy plants. Its been in this state for well over a month or 2 with no roots. It just doesnt want to grow roots at all. It chose to inves its energy into the leaves rather than growing a single tiny root. Its pretty dehydrated and I do everything I can to hydrate it. I keep it in sphagnum moss and keep it moist. I also wipe the leaf with a damp cloth just in case it can absorb atleast a tiny bit of water through the leaf. Atleast Im glad the plant is a strong fighter and it doesnt wanna give up at all

I’m gonna try a hand at your water culture method !! Also, the white fungus like thing is something I think called mealybugs. They’re caused by overwatering, but don’t take my word because I’m relatively new to orchids heh. But since this video is 2 years old, you’ve probably learned that by now haha
