Today we repot the Dendrobium orchids that I keep outside and we are going for the self watering method :)
▼▼▼More info below!▼▼▼
There appear to be a few orchid varieties that just took off outdoors, the Dendrobium Phalaenopsis are one of them. They are growing very vigorous and are drinking a lot of water too!
A self watering system will help me cope with their watering needs in the heat, so here is how easy it is to repot them!

I am repotting 2 dendrobiums today. I just LOVE you and your videos. I love the way you clip right along, not dragging out the subject matter. I love the fact that you never say "UH, UM, Y'KNOW, etc) I love that your video is always centered on your subject with just your hand to direct attention, accent information. I love that you don't waste time with a bunch of extraneous minutiae. I JUST LOVE YOUR VIDEOS. I've watched all the 'orchid aficionados' and while they have some good info, they are just too drawn out with useless filler words. You are the BEST of all!

Hey Danni :) So funny, I have the same exact problem with a den phal and this annoying cane! So now I think I will do the same ;) Also, I repotted my first orchid into this method and using the clay pellets (for the first time!) I'm kind of excited to see how it goes. Thanks.

Hi Dani, this is how I do mine without the string, since sh never worked for me. My orchids love it. I just dump out the water every other week, kinda like flushing it out and what little debris they have.

Hi Danny. I just almost killed moms phal. Gave it to her for Mother’s Day and repotted in fresh moss before I gifted and... all the roots soured and did what I call “a leca”, when I change from moss to semi hydro and the phal losses all its roots. But this time was from spag moss to fresh spag moss. What’s even worst is the leaves are very fragile, almost as the leaves of iceberg lettuce. It’s thick but breaks very very easily. Hence ... “almost killed” where I snapped off one of the fresh predominant leaf, and three had already came off turning yellow and drying. Anyways what to do. On a happy note I found a new phal the next day and replaced it. Of course mom will see it, but something better than nothing. Yeah I’m only of those with two left thumbs sometimes. Next step in this rescue is converting it into semi hydro with the wicking. I’ll bring the wick to surface of the leca so the roots and plant won’t dehydrate any further from loss of roots. Thought I’d shared this. Oh I’m also trying a new thing. I used to cut off all the dead roots. Now when the velamen (?) softens I just pull out the watery or soft pieces leaving the hard inside root. I noticed with phals have a hard inside root. I refrain from cutting it all off, though I do trim if too long but leave enough to reach bottom of pot. Anyways I’m trying ... emergency measures.

Hey Danny, I have a quick question, as I am new to Dendrobium phals (and loving them so far): Can the cut cane be used as a cutting, and if so, how should I do it? One of the dendrobium phals that I recently ordered online (a purple-blue one, coincidentally) came with a broken cane, and I'm wondering how I can save that cane.

@bettyzh 6 жыл бұрын

After seeing your self watering videos, I am going to do a experiment on phal. Got 3 in discount, one will be repot in bark, one in semi hydro, and the last one will be in self watering system. I have bad lucks with phal. They either die or grow extremely slow for me. I am going to find out what works best for phal in my environment.

Enjoyed your video! Just purchased a Den/Phal orchid, my first! It came in a we’ll aerated pot and is in bloom. Plan to repot when blossoms die. It is currently in spagnum moss and bark?? What did you use for medium? Also, one small cane and leaves have dried up - not enough water or too warm? On my north facing patio, plenty of light but no direct sun. Temps are reaching 89 or so here in Fla. I love it and want to give it a happy life! Appreciate your help! Liz

At the beginning of the year, we inherited my father-in-laws dendrobium, and I have been trying to care for it. It flowered and grew some healthy shoots last month, but I feel like it needs to be repotted. Does it matter when I repot?

Very informative, thank you. I have a miniture Dendrobium, I think, not sure really but its has the structure alright, which bears its flowers on the sides of the stem. Since I repotted it, its not doing very well, it produced one or 2 flowers. What tips can u give me to make it bloom again. Would appreciate some help here.🇨🇭💐🥳

Ive just reported my dendrobiums but in the uk I can only get orchid bark and it wasn't holding on to any water so the plant started to fade. After lots of research I used a mix of bark and bonsai tree compost. Not sure if this will be good in the long run but they look a lot better, I hope ive not doomed my plants x

Not if you cut from up there. Also denphals are not big on producing keikis, but you could try it if you really wanted to do something with the cane. Just place it on a bed of damp moss.

In my experience with sympodial orchids, I leave old cane/pseudobulbs on as long as they still have structural integrity and seem to be valuable to the plant. I would never remove a growth still bearing leaves over a matter of inconvenience- that feels like poor plant stewardship to me. Cutting a living growth like the cane in this video opens a plant up to risk of infection and removes a key source of energy. It pained me to see how green and juicy that cane was when it was cut- a sure sign it was still bringing value to the plant.

@MissOrchidGirl 6 жыл бұрын

Well think about how much water you have in a sh pot, it's just the spaces in between the leca. Having a designated space with no leca means 10 times a bigger reservoir ;) it's exactly the self watering concept they use with any soil intended pots.

I just bought a beautifull blue vase. Not transparant, but like milky glass that looks somewhat cracked (don't know the exact name in English). It's good for the orchid because the roots need light. The vase is 50%higher than the brown pot where the orchid is in. So, orchid in a brown pot with watering holes, and then in a vase that is almost double in height. Looks beautifull and also a lot cheaper than a pot. Hope this helps👍
