I always repotted my Cattleyas after they finished blooming while the plant was in its rest period but Cynthia likes to wait until the new shoots and roots appear. I think it's a matter of personal taste and seeing which approach your plants respond best to. |
The medium has green stuff on it. But I just got it with out flowers. The pseabulbs are nice and firm. So I suspect its healthy. Is it ok to leave it outside. I live in san Diego where the weather is decent lol. It gets up to 60 and low 70 in winter and in the summers high 80s. I have another cattleya that is outside. It got sunburned so I moved it to a shadier location. Anyways thanks for the help Kmarch
