Newb Oncidium Potting Medium Question
Question Newb Oncidium Potting Medium Question

Hello orchid wizards.

I am a brand new orchid parent. I recently took in two phals, and so far so good.

Today the local grocery store had a sale on their Matsui orchids. I figure this is because they've been on the shelves for a while and they want to move them, so I stepped in to adopt an oncidium.

Unlike the phals which I got (also grown by Matsui) which are growing in bark mulch, this oncidium seems to be growing in a sort of peaty-moss medium. Which is pretty damp.

Should I be worried about transplanting this into something like wood or coconut fiber, or is it safe to wait until after the blooms?
