New orchid lover
Hello,
about a year ago I received from my students a gorgeous blue orchid. I knew it was dyed but I adored it anyways. After the blooms passed, I made the mistake of cutting off the stem as low as I could. A year later, no new spike, no flowers. I did get a baby, tiny , about half an inch, leaf.
And, I bought another orchid, a stunning bicolour one, with violet and light pink. And a yellow one.
After the blooms passed, the leaves on the violet and pink one started yellowing, and falling off.
That's when I decided I should probably repot all three. Sadly, I bought the Miracle Grow orchid mix.
Promptly, all got root rot.
I did everything I could to save them, and now I found this place.
Hopefully, some knowledgeable people will help me save my plants. I've been reading postings on this forum for a few days.
Nice to meet you all.
