- Today I take you along as I pot up my recently purchased Vanda Orchid!
🦋 More info below! 🦋
First of all, I soak the roots very well in order to make them more flexible. This is necessary to limit root damage and make them fir in a pot a lot easier.
The medium I use is my standard bark and moss mix, with a ratio much higher of bark. Moss will make sure that water will be retained and dispersed, but it will not be excessive.
I pay close attention to the watering needs and I try not to over do it by simply controlling the amount of water I pour through the pot.
