Colmanara Masai Red repotting questions
I received a Colmanara Red Masai in the fall. It was done blooming about a month ago so I repotted it in Oncidium Imperial potting mix from RepotMe. I have many phalaenopsis orchids but this is my first Oncidium. I have several questions and have attached 3 photos. First question: Should it be planted more deeply in the pot? There are many roots that sit above the surface of the soil (see first photo). I analyzed using a larger pot but it was only bigger in width, not depth. Also of note, there are two healthy sets of leaves that have continued to develop (on left of first photo). My second question is whether the small pseudobulb (see second photo) will continue to grow? During repotting a small set of leaves that had been developing at the top of it were knocked off. Thirdly, that small set of leaves had a couple of short roots so I gave it its own pot (see third photo). Without a pseudobulb, will it continue to develop?
