| Florist foam?
Hi, sounds to me like you did the right thing,also.The 'florist foam' was most likely was left from when the orchid was planted as a baby,they're called plugs-a tiny plant rooted in a piece of foam. This is how many growers receive stock.In what they call 'plug trays'.The little seedlings are popped out of the 'plug trays' where they're only rooted in this foam and put in larger pots,foam and all,when they are ready for transplant.Good luck!I'd maybe cut my watering back a bit if you found that many rotten roots. |
