Hey guys! So because I am not always good with updating descriptions of older vids with the new updates, let's try something out! I will start to implement hashtags that describe the topic, you can see them under the video and in the description. So whenever there will be a new update I will mention this hashtag. You can then search for this hashtag by clicking on it and results containing this tag will appear :D this was suggested by one of you, so thank you for a good dea!
hey Danni, Think it was I who sent you the E-mail about this. (phal/dtps w/long, dead root(petrified) but lots of air-roots & decent ,but slightly dehydrated leaves).I've since done what you say here (except no glue or wax) repotted in orchiata/moss . 7 air-roots in, 1 above & now will wait & see 🤞🤞🤞
I’m SO glad you posted this video when you did! A couple of days ago, one of my phals broke apart and I’ve been searching (unsuccessfully, until now) for any tips on the possibility of potting aerial roots. Your videos are always great to learn from- very thorough, articulate, and well-paced. Thank you so much for this one!
UPDATE: I successfully repotted my broken phal in the recommended New Zealand sphagnum moss and good quality bark, covering 2 of its aerial roots, and not only did it begin producing a new leaf, its other leaves are looking healthier and it’s sending out more roots! I’m so glad it worked. Thank you again for your help!
Hi Danny! I had to stop by and give you the usual "Big Thanks" for all the time you put into doing these videos for us. You have changed my life in some ways because you encourage a hobby that is gratifying. I now have 7 orchids and they are all doing FANTASTIC (I have a bunch of new roots and leaves growing on a few of them, but no new flower spikes yet. I am anticipating one soon. hahah). It will be my first "full season" and its very enjoyable. Thanks again Danny and please keep pumping out these videos! :)
I wish I saw this earlier. I changed my phal from moss to bark and almost all the roots died. After growing 2 Arial roots, it has grown a new leaf and is now growing one new root but I am not sure if it is not going into the media yet. Just letting it do its thing.
I like your hot glue method! One of the AOS judges I knew from my orchid group uses a mixture of Elmer's glue and cinnamon (lots of cinnamon!) That she kept on hand. It had always worked well with me and it is thick enough to use on cut leaves without falling off. :)
Thank you, I need this. I have an orchid that I am trying to fix for her. It had lot of Mealie bugs. I cleaned that up and repotted, however it had a 4 inch center stem. I put it in a tall pot because everyone said you can’t cut it. So I see you can but carefully. Now is a good time because it is producing new roots & a new leaf.
I have an idea for a video. If you have room for only a smaller collection and you would like to have something in bloom all year, which combination of orchids could accomplish that goal? I'm pretty much a beginner and I haven't had many blooms at all yet. I'm working on it! I have mostly phals and a few oncidiums.
Thanks Danny. Looking foward to update of your little girl (phals are female ?). Best of luck. My little phal was just treated for red mites. Will be rinsing with soap solution in five days and reapplication of paraffin oil solution. ♥️
Omg can you please do a video on Arachnis?! 😭😭😭 I've been asking for years since I saw that you had some lol! Theres little to NO information anywhere on them. I had to pretty much wing it with 4 cuttings I found after Hurricane Maria (took me ages to even ID them!). They finally flowered last summer but they are about 8ft tall and idk if I should cut it or keep it going. Especially now, after they finally flowered I'm torn on what to do! But I'm running out of vertical room too lol 😅 Thank you for sharing your knowledge with the world Danni!
@@MissOrchidGirl Wow, really?! Thanks! It took a couple years but it was so worth it. Yeah I figured out that they are Vandaceous and terrestrial. But I have no idea what to do with the height. Like will it keep blooming after I cut it? Does it have to be significantly tall to bloom? If I cut it, can i cut it to about 2-3 ft or should it be kept longer? Gah! So many questions. The same goes for my Papilionanthe.. it's getting tall, no blooms yet, but I'm not sure if cutting it will benefit it or set it back. Thanks for your reply, it means a lot. I hope your Arachnis blooms for you its next blooming season! ❤❤❤
Thank you for this video. My oldest orchid "15y old" has such a long main stem and I am so scared to trim her but I have to, as I cannot find a deeper pot to plant her and all new roots are mainly aerial. Is it ok to trim it now or wait for next Spring? Thank you
Love your videos. I didn't know you could trim the dead part of the stem. I repotted my mini still with it. Since repotting my mini has been thriving and has beautiful blooms. Thank you for all the information you put in your videos. Quick question. I did repot a big orchid 4 months ago. I kept a few rotted root to help it since if I cut them she would of be bare rooted. Now she has new roots. What should i do at this point. Let her be for a year or should i repot with same media but remove the rooted old roots?
Hi, well it really depends how many dead roots there are and how they affect the medium. After watering, smell the medium, if it smells bad it means things are going bad in there and you need to intervene, if not you can let it be more. Next time just stabilize the orchid with some stakes, it will be better long term, here's a video on it th-cam.com/video/1UQHjYZvPIM/w-d-xo.html
Hi Dani. I am noticing something white and fuzzy growing on roots of my orchids. Is this mold or fungus? How should I treat this? Do you recommend soaking in hydrogen peroxide? And how do I prevent this from recurring? What could be the underlying issue? Too much moisture (I use a humidifier)? Thanks in advance for your advice!
For work purpose I missed some of video....What is your actual point of view on semihydro? Do you notice a difference now getting back on bark media... God bless you
I woke up to my orchid bloom one flower but it is sagging down and is not opened all the way I give it a little water. Is my orchid going to die? What to do?
Hi Danny, My mini Phalaenopsis lost most of the roots and it has only 3 top roots. It is very dehydrated with 2 leaves left. Have you done re-hydration with black tea solution letting it soak for a full day and dry at night until it recovers hydration before transplanting? I wish you had a web site or email address where I can send you pictures of my mini orchid. It also seemed like one of the top roots has some different tip (almost like mini stems, hairs?) do you think this is a kaiki?
Hi Danny, It’s been a while since I’ve seen you use perlite. I’m growing way less fond of it. I feel like it doesn’t help with drainage at all when I’m already using bark. It’s great for my houseplants that I grow in soil, but it has no place in my orchid setups. What do you think about perlite?
Help! Need your advice please, I have a orchid with a Keki at the top of its long stem but has had no root grow for the for months but it seems to be 'sucking' the life out of the mother orchid. The leaves are now leathery but the baby orchid seems fine. What should I do? Cut the stem its on and save the mother orchid, or save the baby?
Hi, since the keiki has no roots, its chances of survival after removal are small. The mother plant sounds overloaded and close to its end too. So it is up to you to decide who to save, but in case you remove the keiki, try placing it in a dome, or place a bag on top to increase humidity and buy it time, maybe it will root in time. Good luck! ☺️
Hi, here is an aftercare tutorial th-cam.com/video/mHDoyH0tRYc/w-d-xo.html these pots can be found on Amazon or Ebay, at nurseries and specialized stores etc. You can also try using transparent food containers if you provide drainage and ventilation ☺️
So it's ok to put hot glue on live tissue? I have an orchid where i need to cut off the bottom. I was planning on using cinnamon but if hot glue will be ok then ill try it.
Each time I have repot a phal it began rootless few weeks/month later. Can it be because of the media? Or stress wrong method? I'm afraid to do it again but one phal a so much roots it all over the pot... 😇

Its always so fun to see you saving a guy that's kinda bad off, I'm hoping this one recovers well
Surprised 😮 about use of hot glue! Great 💡 idea.
You can also use candle wax!!!! That's what I use!
Very informative and interesting. Thanks!
Hi Danni (miss orchid girl), your videos are very informative. Your voice is very easy and clear. Thank you once again ang keep continue.
I wish I saw this earlier. I changed my phal from moss to bark and almost all the roots died. After growing 2 Arial roots, it has grown a new leaf and is now growing one new root but I am not sure if it is not going into the media yet. Just letting it do its thing.

A mini orchid with long roots? That's pretty cool looking.
Epiphytic orchids like phalaenopsis grow long roots to anchor themselves onto tree branches and such
난꽃 영상 오늘도
너무 잘봤어요 😃👍👍💕💕
Superglue works brilliantly with clean cuts - so there's another option. I've even sealed cacti (very watery) with it, and it works perfectly!
Great to know, thanks for the tip! ☺️

Your orquid flowers are beautiful but I so admire how healthy the leaves all seem to be. I need advise to keep my leaves healthy and pretty.
Thanks Danny. Looking foward to update of your little girl (phals are female ?). Best of luck. My little phal was just treated for red mites. Will be rinsing with soap solution in five days and reapplication of paraffin oil solution. ♥️

Hi, they mainly need Vanda like conditions (since they are Vandaceous) and are monopodials, I didn't get mine to bloom yet so congrats! ☺️

I would not cut the stem of monopodials, unless it's dead, it will continue blooming from upper on the stem each time, just like a Phal :D

I thought you said in previous videos that aerial roots are prone to dying if they are suddenly moved to the medium, no?
It depends you have to keep track of the amount of moisture you are adding. Like she said slowly increase the moisture levels over a period of time.
Love your videos. I didn't know you could trim the dead part of the stem. I repotted my mini still with it. Since repotting my mini has been thriving and has beautiful blooms. Thank you for all the information you put in your videos.

Disclaimer: I am currently experimenting with the pieces of perlite that are the size of grapes.
Hi, I gave up using it and other aerators too, my environment could do with more water retention than aerators 😋

Once the flowers die
What do i do ?
Also where do i find the clear plastic pots I've never seen them at the stores thank you

1 Popcorn I’ve used it , it kinda kills roots in contact if it gets on them but as long as it’s not on roots it should b fine to use
Each time I have repot a phal it began rootless few weeks/month later. Can it be because of the media? Or stress wrong method? I'm afraid to do it again but one phal a so much roots it all over the pot... 😇
Hi, I talk about root adjustment in this video, as the title suggests... Maybe you skipped it 🤷
Do you apply hot glue /wax to any accidentally cut fresh roots too?
Hi, nope just stems!
@@MissOrchidGirl what do I do with the broken good roots that are going in the pot?
What were the orange things at around 5:20 ? I have seen it on my orchids before.
Dead orchid parts?
can i trim my foxtail orchid??
Your black tray makes it very difficult to see what you are trying to show.
