| repot and/or prune roots?
I had a Phalaenopsis orchid for about 18 months and decided to repot it as it was getting too big for its pot. However, I don't think I potted it in a large enough pot because it's about 6 months later and the new root growth is going way over the edges again (about 6-8 roots). Would I be sending the plant into too much shock if I repotted it again now (although it is not blooming)? If I do repot, should I be cutting back healthy roots - it has quite a mass of them? Or should I just do nothing,keep the existing pot and let the roots go crazy for another 6 months? |
