My wife got an orchid for her birthday and well it did not fair so well. We followed your instructions and it is bouncing back. Thanks so much for the information.
Thank you so much, I have been half wrong on caring for my Orchids, now that you showed me the correct way I will replant them now. This will give them the perfect life and relaxation for the rest of my life because Orchids can out live you. My daughter will love and care for them when I have passed. Don't take any negative content that is said seriously, they just have to state their peace and get on with their lives. Thanks again....
Good video. I have blooming orchids for years now. The secret for me is I talk to them, tell each one how lovely it is. I water (soak) them only one every two weeks and give them vitamins at that time. I have one who is the champion of all champions blooming three spikes and the flowers last for 4 months. No kidding.
Love your video im going to replant my orchid that i got like over a year ago. You cracked me up with your coment about the voting for what's his face, i had to listen to it twice. Loved it lol
Thank you!! Your video is very easy to follow! Got an orchid from my son & daughter-in-law - it was outside in FULL sun 🥵!! I think it's saveable, it has 1 sunburned leaf but I see some healthy roots. I just bought bark & a small bale of natural dried Sphagnum Moss for Orchids & succulents. Excited to see what the blooms will look like!!
8:28...I was liking this video… And now I love this video… Super informative probably the best beginner video out there...Well what I mean is video for beginners
Thank you I need to repot my 3 orchids. I was so excited when my first orchid plant rebloom. It was so exciting and now I know how to repot them thank you.
Well I just started with my very first orchid. It is looking pretty cramped in its pot so I looked up how to transplant and found This video. Following to the tee. Thank you for the help. By the way I was keeping it out of the sun light. Now it goes, into the sunny room. 😃
Very well explained, enjoyed your video. About to check your other videos out and see if I would like to subscribe. I have 6 orchids, 2 were already here in Colorado when I moved here. I call the roots, fingers. I just feel like that's what they remind me of, fingers. I talk to them almost every day. I also take a warm wet paper towel and Very gently clean their leaves off. I just show them Very gently care, oh, and yes, I do talk them through the process. When I'm done, their leaves just get stronger and more vibrant. I have Never taken care of orchids before, so I am learning how on my own. So far, I have had 2 of the six reflower, and the oldest one has a new branch now. I must be doing Something right. I just wanted to say, Thank you for sharing this vital information with us, and I am now learning something that I Needed to know about orchids. Hi, my name is Angie, from eastern North Carolina but live in Colorado now. Hope everyone has a Safe, Blessed and Wonderful day. ❤️🤗🍃🪴🍃🤗❤️
Thank you for sharing this, my sons got me an orchid for, Mother's Day. And she is about to lose her flowers. So I was just wanting to ask is, when I change her pot do I put small rocks on the bottom of her pot for when I water her ???? Thank you
Thank you for the information as I have a small orchid from Walmart that is growing new roots and branch. Looking forward to reporting it. How often and how much water should a small orchid get?
Hi dear thank you for teaching me how to look after my new orchid which was packed with moss. I have kill many but I won't give up I love the plants Thank you for sharing your knowledge. I have subscribed to your site!
Thank you. First time taking care of orchid on my own. Very easy to follow your instructions. Do you have any videos on bonsai trees? First time for that too. Just picking up new hobbies. 😊
I bought an orchid right about 2 months ago, it still has flowers, I did not repot it but it kind of looks like one of the roots is turning brown, should I report now or wait till the flowers fall of?
I am extremely confusing now. Almost all the sites that I have viewed so far state it very specifically that direct sunlight should be avoided!! I am from South Africa and our temperatures in summer range between 25 - 38 deg Celsius in summer and -7 to 24 deg Celsius in winter. So in our case it would not be advisable to put them in direct sunlight as they will get sun scorched in summer and frost bite in winter. I can assume that putting them in a windowsill with some morning sun makes more sense???
I live in hot, humid Central Florida. Can I leave my orchid on the back porch when it hits 90 degrees with 90% humidity? The porch gets direct morning sun but by 9:00 am it's burning already. It didn't do well when I had it indoors near the window. My step mother leaves her orchids outside (South Florida) in the winter when it could drop to 50 degrees ... they seem to thrive.
Thank you for this instruction. I have a purple orchid that needs to be repotted.i It is a beautiful flower that comes in many different colors. But .....there is no nice odor, okay.? My mom received one. from my sister, it bloomed great. then it started to loose its flowers. i like to do gardening, and have had some experience repotting plants. I saw your video and others, I will repot what is left and take good care of it. One time i had a small cactus plant. It looked out of shape . repotted it and a few weeks later it had a pretty flower on it. . Thank you, Kathleen
I got a orchid for Mother’s Day and it still alive and doing well it’s just now starting to lose so if you blooms and I was told to keep it out of the sun then I was told that it needs sun it’s in my kitchen window by the sink and it gets the morning sun but when it’s been hot I close the shade for it can’t get any sun but it gets bright light when do I transplant I want to put it into a nicer pot it’s just in Pete Moss now do I wait until the blooms are all gone then transplant ? Please reply back thank you 😊
Eastern window is perfect for me. I have mine in potting soil and I have to keep repotting because it keeps growing like crazy. I feed it miracle grow with bottled water and then I throw some black coffee in it every 3 weeks. Goes crazy blooming after the coffee! I have a dish under to catch the watering. I water let it sit for an hour then pour the excess liquid out. Then don't water again till it's been bone dry for a few days. Always use bottled water cause my tap water is full of minerals and they don't like it!
It is interesting you mentioned potting soil. I used 1/3 potting soil 1/3 bark and topped it with spagmum moss when I replanted my orchid. It is doing really well.
So I bought these orchids at Costco and within a week they were wilting. I Followed your videos, cleaned them up and realize I was way over watering them for the winter in the south east and will also make sure they get more sunlight. My main question is after repotting should I trim off the Bloom stem?
Well, I watched because although my orchid has grown well and flowering again after being repotted 2 years ago, the stem has grown sideways, nearly horizontal, and roots or stems are growing above potting medium and over sides of pot. I thought maybe it needed repotting because of that and was worried that one of the leaves has purple hue on one side. BUT after watching this, looks like my plant is doing ok!! Just not sure what to do about those stems and roots that are getting long?! Haha...the comment at 8:25...;).
My 2 orchids are seemingly rather happy. I repotted one - Penelope - today. The second - Sid - was rescued from Sainsbury's January this where they had it in a fridge in the stock room and now nearing May it has a stalk full of buds! I don't like the cutting business though - I leave that up to it. I think I should have got rid of more dead roots.. Obviously in its natural habitat, maybe something in the ground would break down those dead roots. I cut back a couple of bits in the process of 2 dodgy bits dying using a sterilised knife, but it's a sharp knife and I had to saw through... I hope I didn't do it any harm. It sucks the nutrients and juices back out and makes new roots, and I think that process is flawless.
Great video! Very informative - and it looks like your orchids are pleased with how you’re treating them. Had to laugh at some of the comments on here. The world has just gone PC crazy - toughen you soft whining crybabies! 😥😩😩😩😩🥺
No offense you should keep the subject on gardening and keep the political aspect out just saying and thank you for the information on the orchids it’s much appreciated!
I can tell my orchid is crying out for new accomodations, and I was wondering how to properly replant it in a larger pot. I had an orchid that had a dozen blooms - magnificent! Are you in San Jose, CA? I am in Marin. Thanks for showing me how to are for my orchid.
I followed your replanting advice and was thrilled when my orchid recently bloomed again and is so healthy and happy. My friend gave me an orchid that was grown around a trellis. The blooms are done, do you recommend cutting off the stems around the trellis. They look healthy, but will they bloom again without cutting the stems back??
So how do you like those high gas prices? And high cost of living? What do you like best that Biden has done for this country so far? I would love to hear something 🤣

My daughtet brought.me a mistyic orchid i never grew it before I'm afraid I'm going to hurt it please help me its leaves are closing up what am i doing wrong?
I thought you will need to used a transparent plastic pots because there is a useful bacteria that symbiotic to orchids roots that produces nutrients that are good for orchids? Am I right?
From what I understand, orchids like sunlight that is filtered, i.e. like (in the wild) they cling onto the side of trees/branches. Too hot and they dry out quickly (too much heat), too dark and the health of the orchid suffers (won't bloom).
Hey! I find that they like warm afternoon sun filtered through windows. Or just any direct sun indoors. They don’t like it too hot.. and don’t keep the soil too wet if you don’t keep your house too warm. Just be aware of where the sun enters your house. I’ll post another video about placing orchids indoors.
I am going to make you very jealous. I have lots of lovely Orchids, some are many years old. However I love to always do better with my Orchid growing. I also live in a subtropical climate in Florida, so this helps. Thanks, I love San Jose its a lovely area.

Albert Ward they need indoor direct sunlight.. trust me!! Not toooo hot though.
I'm sorry,,but never out your orchids in direct sun. They will wilt.
It is better to keep your mouth closed and let people think you are a fool than to open it and remove all doubt.

I have always read that you need special pots with holes, no direct sunlight, what do you believe?

No do not cut the stalks. But just be careful replanting it if it has flowers.
Awesome advise ! Thank you 😊
