My first uploaded photo
....hope, it worked?!
One of my Phals got a "baby" at its panicle.
When it had its first little roots I seperated it from its 'mum' and planted it in a glas with Seramis, having been inspired by some photos from this forum. It's the first time I cultivate an Orchid in Seramis. With a glas-lid on, it'll be nice warm and moist. The lid is beeing opened every day for 2 or 3 hours to prevent mould.
Tschüss,
Kalla

Hallo Kalla, Wilkommen im OB!
yeap, as Ross already said, it seems to be on the right path... however, just a tip for next time  let the keiki grow as much as it can on the spike, or at leats until the roots are 5 cm or longer... this will improve the performance of the little one....

Hi Kavanaru @all,
normally I wait much longer, before I cut the 'Kid' off.
Thanks for your advice. Look at my photo below, it's a Dendrobium, isn't it.
Tschüss,
Kalla

I'm sorry, I forgot. I tend to not wait so long as others do with roots, 'cause I have a high-humidity environment (I call it "the tank") that has 90%+ humidity. So I can get away with shorter roots. Sorry for the confusion.

Yes, the other one looks like dendrobium. Both babies look great!
