Hello! I am new to this board and am also a beginner orchid grower.
My phalaenopsis orchid, which I have had for about a year and a half or so, is growing a keiki on it's spike. It took me a long time to even find out what that new growth was called!
I have a couple questions concerning this. First, I had been thinking about repotting my plant for the first time. Is this a bad idea with the keiki? It is also growing flower buds on a couple other areas. Should I wait, or is it okay to do it before the buds bloom?
Secondly, how should I take care of the keiki, and when is it okay to separate it from the original orchid?
Thank you in advance for any advice you might be able to offer!
