Phal finally grew roots! Is it time to repot?!!
Hello everyone!! Hope you're having a great Saturday!
I have this orchid that my husband gifted me 2 years ago, it was my very first orchid and is what started my obsession. This orchid is so sentimental to me and I have been trying to save it since I received it. It has never fully recovered.
This is a noid Phal that is actually supposed to be quite large. All of the leaves it currently has are new and happened while in my care so are quite small than the ones it came with.
Recently it lost its only good root so I decided I would finally try sphag and bag and I'm really glad I did.
It has 3 new roots and when I started it had 0! My question now is should I pot this up in media or continue sphag and bag?! I would pot it up in a mix of sphagnum moss and a bark orchid media mix and then place it on a heating mat.
What I've been doing so far is having it in a ziplock bag with some wet sphagnum moss and its placed on a table with bright indirect light. Once a week I soak it in a mix of water and liquid seaweed plant food (pic below). What do you guys think of this method?
I would appreciate any advice regarding getting this orchid back in good health!
Thank you everyone in advance!!!
