Root Growth on Phal Keikis Female
Default Root Growth on Phal Keikis

Hi all,

I have 2 Phal NoIDs & one has 1 keiki & the other is sprouting 3 keikis off of it. I have successfully grown Dendrobium keikis before, but my Phals have never produced keikis. I was wondering if the mother plant might be unhealthy in some way for it to be producing 3 at a time. I was also wondering when they might begin to produce roots. With my Dendrobiums the roots always appeared & grew along with the cane. Right now though, I have 2 1-inch leaves, but still no roots. Also, once I have roots, does anyone have any pot & potting media suggestions? Any advice is appreciated.

Thanks

Just give them time, they'll grow roots. Leave them on the mother plant until each have at least 3" of roots.
