ROOTS?!?!?!?!?!? Male
Default ROOTS?!?!?!?!?!?
I have noticed by Dendrobiums roots are growing like MAJORLY fast and there are A LOT of them... they its planted in Better~Gro's Orchid Bark, which has a mix of fir bark chunks, perolite, carbon, and ... whatever else it has.. its a good draining mix. Just the roots are growing like crazy, I occationally will remove some bark just too see, and dang is it growing...

Is this normal?

Vigorous root growth is a sign of health. They're happy.
