Orchid repot- a video in 2 parts!

I was never an orchid girlie, really! I was afraid of them, always heard they were "fussy" or "no good once they bloomed and the blooms died" and "complicated". Well, I am here to tell you that they are not. Would I lie? Here's a little video lesson on orchids and our repotting service. Some things to note:

• Orchid repotting is recommended to be done about once every 1 and 1/2 years to every 2 years. The medium breaks down and the pH changes and your orchid is likely outgrowing its container

• It's not recommended to repot while blooming

• Do NOT use ice cubes to water. These are tropical plants and that just makes no sense. It's a marketing gimmick. Don't fall for it. Actually watering them correctly is even easier, in my opinion!

• Leaf loss is normal, as long as it's the bottom leaves. If possible, let the leaves remain on until they fall off naturally. They'll yellow and eventually fall off.

OK, now here's Part 2! And let me know, comment if you would be interested in an hour long Orchid repotting workshop. I've done them before---- 1 price for auditors (don't have an orchid to repot, but want to learn) and another price for people who bring an orchid to repot. We usually do Sunday afternoons around 3pm.

• We also sell a complete Orchid Care Kit by We The Wild. It includes orchid food and leaf spray. We have them in shop, you can comment here, call 551-246-1926 or email us at deeplyrootedridgewood@gmail.com and we will put one aside for you.
