Use any method that can keep the humidity high.

Please help me with these questions
Should I make more holes to the side of the pot
The artificial light should be switched on 24 a day
After two days, i will water it and close it into a plastic bag with the light switched on
Should I use some fertilizer?
THANK YOU

Looks good. Remember to provide high humidity since there's not enough roots to uptake water.

I have success with close bottle with water at the bottom without the plant touching the water. Give it about 12 hrs light and turn them off at night. Dont want it to do photosynthesis 24/7 which can causes stress to the plant

I tried the bottle method I am not 100 percent sure if that is ok The root does not touch anything (does this creates pressure on it?) and the leave touches the walls of the bottle (I don't know if that is good I added some media to the water (is that ok or only water is needed?)
Should the bottle be closed

I am very anxious
Thank YOU

You really need to stop messing with it. Pick one method and then leave it be. The more you disturb it the more stressed the plant will be, further delaying recovery. I usually pot up rescue orchids in the small possible pot, and keep it warm and humid. Lights should be on no more than 16h a day. Just like humans plants also need periods of darkness. A seedling heat mat could be useful as well.

On a different note, we moderators generally recommend to not use your email address as your forum username, you may end up getting spammed by a bot. If you would like to change your username just PM one of the moderators and we'll have it done!

Just keep the bottle method since you have started. Just provide it high light light and it will produce root for you soon. The water on the side it's ok. The leave will not be rot as there isn't any gas exchange.

I think this method is fine. Just remember to avoid direct sun, otherwise, the plant can suffer.
