Default

Well today I either did something good or I have killed off my little dendrobium!!

The pot came off ok but the roots were tangled round and round in the pot and it took me a whole hour to try and remove the old medium from the roots. I think I tore some of the roots off at the bottom and then when I went to repot it, it wouldn't sit right in the pot as it was so overgrown. Th epot it was in was only about 10cm and I was going to repot it in a 17.5cm pot.

It was so hot here today so I was hot & bothered, and nearly in tears and then I just decided to take a pair of pruning scissors and cut it. I ended up with 3 small plants and I have repotted them and given them a good water and I'll wait to see what happens now.

Its either going to work or not.....hmm will just have to wait and see.

I'm too scared to repot the very large dendrobium to the right in my first picture. Its massive and although its leaning over to one side, I think there's a little room left for more psuedobulbs to grow. But I'm open to suggestions!
