How deep in the container with S/H? Female
Question How deep in the container with S/H?

I have a new inter generic oncidium that is 'blooming size', and as it's not spiking or budding as yet, I have just today put it into S/H. I got this on line, in a bark mix. A small amount of roots could be seen on top. Anyway, I made sure (I think) not to over pot it, and found a glass container similar in size to the plastic pot it came in. I did leave some of the roots above the primeagra, and now am wondering if it's alright to have it this way. My reasoning (if you could call it that) is that I go to these greenhouses, and the orchids there all have all these roots up and out of the pots, all over the place, and I think "well, mine aren't like that!" (My phals are much more so but...) So I left some roots up out of the pellets. I know this orchid will have to go through an adjustment period, but have I stressed it out more?
