Sassismom, ideally you would leave it with its roots exposed to light and air forever, because thats how it grows in nature. It will always grow faster like this. But... since most people stick their orchids in pots to avoid certain hassles, you would pot it up after it has grown a square inch or two of leaf surface.

That's like leaving a dying soldier on the battlefield... orchids have souls, and they will haunt you at night
