Are these roots healthy?

[L. Vilas Boas]

Hi guys, I came to bother you again with doubts about my Potinara.
Since the flowers fell so quickly like I mentioned in the other post, I decided to repot it. It was my first official repotting experience by myself, actually. So, I found these whiteish roots, some of them kind of mushy. I cut off the mushy one and repotted on a transparent pot, with a mixed medium.
Anyway, I took this picture of the roots and would like to know what you think. Are they healthy? Do you think my Potinara has surviving potential?

Looks good to me!

Most of the roots you show are very alive. You may have cut off a lot of living roots. The plant should survive, though. The remaining roots look OK.

The best time to repot almost all Cattleyas is when the new roots are just beginning to grow. Cattleyas generally only make roots from the very newest growths, and not from older growths. Some make new roots as the new growth begins, and others make new roots when the new growth is almost or completely mature.

If the potting medium is in very bad shape, many people will repot Cattleyas right away, even if roots are not growing. I don't do this. Instead I am very careful with watering, until the new roots begin growing.
