my Phal has rooted to its terracottra pot: advice! Male
Default my Phal has rooted to its terracotta pot: advice!

About a year ago I re-potted my very stressed phalaenopsis into a terracotta pot, at the time it had only three viable roots and was growing a keiki.

Since then, things have gone well, the keiki has gotten huge, and it seems to be growing lots and lots of roots.

However, I have not seen any blooms in over a 1.5 years, in hope of helping the plant along, and getting some sun on the roots I bought some clear plastic pots to re-pot in and maybe try to separate the keiki, and have two orchids!

Went to re-pot today, and my orchid has rooted into the terracotta, in a pretty big way! I've even got some roots growing through the slots in the side of the pot

So I'm looking for advice on how to separate the plant from the pot, if that's even possible, also, any information on how to separate the basal keiki would be appreciated.

Any input is welcome, pics are attached, thanks everyone!
