New and dumb- when to repot Phals
 
Hi- I am an orchid newbie and still orchid ignorant :o) I have 3 phals that have finished blooming. I have cut the flower spike above the farthest node from the base. When I observe the roots to me it looks like they could use a new nice healthy change of potting material and larger pot. I repotted another one about a month ago and it is producing new leaves already. I have them all ina sun room in temps 60-70 degrees Is it ok to go ahead and repot the other three. Would I be correct in not fertilizing for a while, let them rest a bit??? Many thanks

Paul

Its best to repot all of them so you are sure of the media. What I use the phalaenopsis mix from better gro and worked wonders for me. Do not fertilize till you see some growth. Goodluck!

so no need to wait until spring. I can repot once blooming is done?

You can repot now if you like.
