Once again thank you for watching🌱
recently discovered this channel and I have become a big fan! I love the indepth information about individual plants. keep making these great videos and I will keep watching them, thanks a lot!
Yes, truly, thank you so much for your invaluable input‼️I recently found you and my gratitude is boundless 🌱❤️
This is the most comprehensive video I have ever seen about orchids! The presenter seems to be very knowledgeable and an experienced cultivator! I greatly appreciate this information so very carefully detailed! I was about to give up on my Orchids until I listened to this video! Thank very much! Highly recommended!
Missorchidgirl is a very good stream and worth a visit too. ❤
@@katesmiles4208 I have been watching MissOrchidGirl for years, and she is extremely knowledgeable and much less didactic.
Never give up on your Orchids, they're hardier than ppl give them credit for. I've saved Orchids from many friends that were near death from various issues (the orchids, not the friends😂). They can be salvaged, I have faith in you🤗
My daughter buys me one for every occasion, and They never bloom again, TY 4 All the Great Help Yall are Awesome
Thank you so much I have wanted to grow orchids for years with all the information you have given I will try
I disagree about getting the ones that have flowers that have all opened 🤔When you get ones with buds, you know it has more time left to bloom vs if they are all open, you don't know how long they have been open and how much longer they have left.
Well, I actually agree in parts with the video because it's the middle of winter right now in Canada. So if I were to buy an orchid, the whole transport from warm retailers to minus 10 degrees outside to the car to a warmer destination will 90% send the plant into shock and the buds will never open. If the orchids were a gift, that would send confusion and heartbreak to my friend to see the buds wither and fall. If the orchid were for me, I wouldn't care either way; the spikes would be snipped so the plant could bounce back sooner.
You are right but he did explain the reason to choose one with the most open flowers is there is a slight chance that the remaining buds will not open due to change of environment
@@rhodealexandre6583 okay... I still disagree .. I think it's better to choose one with un opened buds
🙄 Also, he said that any root that isn't green or silver only, is bad. Which is 100 % false. Roots Can be yellow as well and are still absolutely healthy. It just means they haven't gotten much sunlight. I love this channel, but I'm an orchid enthusiast and some of the things he said In this I don't fully agree with.
@@chuck4714 I agree with you. For me the only thing I look at the flower, is if I like it. Everything else is history. Yes lots of flowers and a thick stock meant the plant was doing very well while it was growing the flowers. The plant may also be very tired after. I took that leaves roots and media. Eight-year-old media or whatever he said it was. I will recognize it as old and walk away. The plant may have adjusted as the media aged and broke down. But eventually it will rot the roots, after that long in old broken-down media I would be afraid that the shift back to good media would be very difficult for the plant to get over.
I absolutely agree with you
I've had orchids for many years and found this video really helpful. Thank you. 😊
Thanks a lot for this video. I never knew new phal can be created using a spike.
Wow! What a comprehensive video. You guys rock!
I love the plant advice but as someone who works at a plantstore I have to strongly advice against knocking off the pot to take a look at the roots. If the root ball is not compact the soil will spill everywhere and people like me have to clean that mess up.
Flower triggering on Phaelenopsis hybrids is actually quite simple, unless they are a cross of one of the the summer bloomers. But you will not typically find those types in flower shops, only in specialized nurseries. They need a cooler nighttime temperature for at least 2 weeks two to initiate flower spikes. That is why you can find them in flower all year round. It is quite easy for nurseries to get them to flower at the convenient time.
Mine bloom at any time as long as temperatures during the afternoon don't exceed 26°C. Central heating keeps temps above 18°C all year. Dosen't stop the blooming. High afternoon temps stop the blooming. My oldest Phal is 12 years old and always behaved like that. I never give it cool temps.
I have tried over and over to grow orchids but do not have any success. I looked at your video on care for dry leaves on calatheas because my plant has dry leaves on the ends of it; I am hoping my calathea look as beautiful as it was ... Thank you for your valuable information.
I made my mom watch this. She admitted she learn so much that she didn't know and so did I. Thank you so much very informative 🤗
thanks Swedish Plantguys for these good tips and clear explanation. I followed them all 👍
Thank you! Out of the multitude of repotting orchid videos I've watched you are the only one to mention what to do with the roots outside of the pot. Kudos for your thoroughness!
2 days ago, I 'rescued' a Phalaenopsis from a big box store here in the USA. It was in about a 2 inch pot and living in 100% sphagnum moss. No bark at all. The moss was so compact and dried out, it was VERY hard, and difficult to clean off the roots. The plant looks very healthy for the condition of the planting medium. I cleaned the roots and removed a few dead ones. I repotted it using bark, and put it in a 5 inch slotted orchid pot (it's the only one I had) that I put into another more decorative pot. It's in my east facing kitchen window. I am hoping the remaining buds will open. Time will tell! 🤞🤞
When I get orchids that are potted in super compact spag moss like I did about a month ago or so i waited a few days for the orchid to get used to it’s new environment. After that I watered it throughly and left it for about 15-20 minutes to soften the hard moss after that I just picked some of the moss to make it fluffier/airier so roots can breath. All buds survived and some have recently opened. I won’t be replacing media until after blooms start to wither into a mix of moss and bark as my climate requires some moss to hold humidity as my summers are super hot and dry and winters are cold and humid.
Thanks,@@KaritaGR Unfortunately, she has died... I thought she looked fine, but somehow got crown rot (I was always very careful to not get water in there). All 3 leaves fell off in my hands, and the roots were shriveled. 😒😒 I will try again!
What a lot of information! Thank you 😊
The pot you put it in is too large a jump in size. Orchid roots like to be a bit crowded. Your plant will probably be ok, but it will be a very long time before it recovers completely for the transplanting.
@@mte4506 She died a while ago...
I just got my orchid. Half the leaves are on the right and half are on the left in a perfect straight line. How do I position the plant in the window to keep the leaves in line and not start to curve around? Sending lots of love 💖 from sunny 🌞 Arizona 🌵 USA. Take care of yourself and each other 😷
5 stars! I totally enjoyed this. I have a lot of phals, and love them. Thank you and look forward to more.
I always repot when I bought a new orchids.
Some of orchids I keep in tall water vase .- filter water- last for years …
Easy care .
All my orchids in water blooming in May.
Love your channel. Thank you!!
Thank you very much ❤ for your encouraging knowledge‼️🌱
Always love your videos! Thank you for this!
You have answered so many questions, thanks. One of my orchids has produced two baby plants on a spike that is finished blooming
Your babies are known as Keikis.😊
When you compare 2 orchids and say one is a better quality than the other, you should compare orchids that are of similar age. The one sold in the big box store on the right is clearly a younger plant, meaning less flowers and thinner stalks. Also grey roots on Phaelenopsis are not an indication of poor root quality, it simply means that the orchid needs watering. Roots turn green when they are wet, it just means the grey of the velamen turns see through. What you should in stead look out for is dead roots. Also the number of flowers is not a reliable way to judge quality unless you compare the same hybrid. The number of flowers varies depending on the specific hybrid. Some are prolific bloomers while others produce less but sometimes bigger blooms.
I have a phalaenopsis that is in the same soil for ten years. Flowers every year with 16 or more flowers
Lucky you. In some areas, a some areas of the globe, this type of orchid would not survive in the same pot year after year. It depends on your micro- climate. In Hawaii, we have 10 microclimates., from hot/dry to wet/wet. On the wet side 200 inches of rain per year, everything rots including plant medium.
I Think u covered everything, thank u I just bought my first orchids I really liked the tip about starting new plants around 39:00 minutes.
I keep some orchids in tall vase water - easy care for indoor.
Last for longtime .
My Phalaenopsis - Zygopetalum - Dendrobium out door in patio start some new flowers in October..
I am in South California - last winter all my Phalaenopsis did not make it - but Zygopetalum and Dendrobium is O.K.
Zygopetalum and Dendrobium easy care ❤️
Thanks for covering most of the important things.
If you make (cut) a cutting; cut the top straight and the bottom with a bit of a slant. Never confusion.
The top of the node sheath is pointed. Easy to tell the difference from top to bottom. ;)
@@PrairieGal1985 Yes, you are absolute right.
A brilliant suggestion. THX
Thanks for that summery! I never tried producing new orchids with your method but will def. try it! Hopefully I can through away stams again which have finished flowering!
😂
Thank you , I’ve learned so much regarding how to care for orchids.
I just purchased an orchid so hopefully your in-depth instructions will help it survive. It has variegated leaves so I hope I can grow it for many years.
Thank you for information which was very well explained and has taught me a lot about orchids.l have recently been given one as a gift and the scent alone is beautiful...they are majestic in style, colour . Great to listen and watch people like yourself guide me.Thank you for sharing.
The best and most concise video about phalaenopsis orchids I have seen.Thank you.I hope to grow my 4 successfully
Absolutely enjoyed and loved the way that the info was organized for my convenience. I would love to see more about other plant types if possible in this format!❤️
Good tips. I have never repotted mine. My oldest is 8 years.
Use fiber sticks; wooden sticks can get moulded.
Thanks for an in depth video on orchids. As always it’s very informative and detailed. However I’m wondering why do you need to suspend the nodes clipped to the sticks during propagation? Can’t you just place them in a cup and submerge the bottom node in water? TIA 😊
Maybe the growing roots would get too much water?
If you have really big amount of aerial roots it means that probably your orchid not really like the condition in the pot. Probably suffocating or have not enough water, so it grow additional aerial roots in search of water and nutrients. Sometimes it just an orchid personality tho 😅
Thanks very much very well advised fantastic idea Im from south Africa bye
Thank you so much for this. I thought that I knew everything about phalaenopsis, but you taught me several new and valuable things
Oh you are lovely, I could listen to you for hours. Actually I do. I've learned so much from your videos. Really appreciate you. Many thanks ❤
I enjoyed watching😌🙏💖
Thank you very much for such a detailed interesting video.
I wacth almost every day.i thankful to you.i learn a lot about plants.from Norway
Hej på dig!!
Det var ett tag !!
Roligt att få tips!
Tack!
I have to disagree with the roots fact, being silvery in appearance just means it’s dry and being green just means that it’s hydrated,doesn’t indicate that it is bad or actively rotting. However if the roots are nowhere to be seen or even worse brownish in colour(in case of the moth orchid) that’s a clear sign of root rot
I always bottom water mine in a bigger container and leave it soaking for about 15 minutes and then let it drain well and is doing fine
Does the recommendation of "" apply to mini orchids. Mine seems to be crammed into a plastic pot 2"x 2",with only a 1/4" drain hole in the bottom. The pot has no side holes.
The plant itself is about 9" tall, with four open blooms and two buds. Leaves are glossy and standing almost vertical.
Learned a lot! One problem I have is that I had to move a lot! Orchids do not like change! Fortunately some adjusted; but even with all the care and best tips, I lost some
Very informative! Thanks! ❤🔥❤🔥❤🔥
Cuttings with nodes where flowers have bloomed won't make new spikes in my humble opinion. It's hard enough to get new spikes from the dormant buds.
I agree, I have not met anyone who has grown a Phaelenopsis keiki this way. You are better off trying to treat a spent flower spike that is still attached to the plant with some keiki paste. That being said, there are some hybrids that produce keiki like crazy, I have one who will continuously put out new keiki, as soon as I have removed one, it grows another. Up to 3 at a time sometimes, it’s crazy…..
He seemed to be calling all nodes locations where flower spikes had been. That's false. I do have three right now that are blooming on old spikes that were cut back well below where the flowers had been. It's been my finding that it's not a good idea to let this happen more than once. The plant needs to go into a vegetative state to grow new leaves and roots as well as store energy for producing more flowers, which would be the reproductive state. Encouraging bloom state too frequently could cause the plant to become sick and/or die. So much info out there and a lot of it contradicts. Fun, though, to try to work out our own applications and what works for us as individuals with varying growing situations. :)
That is true for most phal but not all
Loved this explicit clip. Thank you.
16:37 it's pretty
one of my monstera has a 1m aerial root
Thank you thank you Sir, for first: excellent explanation and mentioning even very small things, and second: for talking not very fast that people like me that English is their second language, could understand very well. I live in America and found you just today and am going to stick with you. I’m not sure if you have other videos but I have not looked yet, I hope you teach how to fertilize, watering and this stuff. At the end I want to appreciate such a helpful video and please keep on your good work. ❤
Sir, I will gladly like and comment
Amigos a planta responde ao estimulo que recebe do seu cultivador. Depende muito do clima do ambiente e da forma do cuidar. A natureza sempre encontrará uma maneira de superar as carências para o ser vivo. Na flora nada é definitivo. Nem mesmo o fogo porque a Bíblia diz "ao cheiro das águas brotará como planta nova florescerá"! É isso. Abraço amigo. ❤❤ Ja estou seguindo e deixei meu like!
Wonderful, I learned so much, thank you
Thank you so much for your advice. You have answered several questions I have about caring about these orchids. Thanks for sharing ❤
Amazing information. Thank you very much.
Too good . Thankyou
So much info in just one video! Excellent!
Watching from South Africa. Enjoyed this very much
Great advice
Is it possible to show how to make orchid soil at home? Does orchid release oxygen during night? Would be interesting to know more about which indoor plants release oxygen 24/7 and which of them safe and suggested to have in the children bedrooms. Thank you.
Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge.
I believe mine are generic.....I know about watering and root inspection. And how to feed...I do this whenever I water.....from the bottom..... like my African Violets. But I wonder..... when they will flower again? I have grow lights on them all......12 on 12 off. Am I doing right? Are they supposed to continuously flower? Or once in a while. Thanks.
ILoved hearinh everything you had to day and this is my 3rd orchid now.
I live in Northern Canada l have had btt5 luck with this one l got it in June and it just stopped blooming l have a new leaf
now lis3to you l think l have been watering to much
My daughter and I are getting into pottery classes soon and I can make special pots for my orchid and maybe get another orchid with a different color wish me luck
Miss Kitty 🙋♀️
My Orchid need to be repot badly ,I have never repotted, well the roots are all brown and rotting.I purchased some orchid potting soil to use ..Wish me luck
I hate them I have over a hundred different species but I can't keep a Phal alive 😁(tried many times)
Excellent video. I learned a lot . Thanks.
I am a NEW orchid owner and this video is so helpful. This may be a stupid question but my tag says 'Maxima', is this part of the Phalaenopsis family?
Some (about half!) of these advices are opposite from others I have seen/heard of professionally gardeners in other countries. This makes me very confused. Like a woman in US that said the soil gets drained from nourishment and should be replaced every 2:nd or 3:rd year. I have another pro in Thailand and those advices maybe just apply in a tropical climate, but he show how to ensure the damaged orchid is clean and what to use as natural antibiotics. Like garlic and cinnamon. Then yet another in Australia that have been kind of a support as I am a beginner on orchids and try to get it as right as I can.
I did the cut below and above the node..and placed in water..now what will happen? I get flowers? Then how do I transplant the plant.
This is a science experiment😊
It is not such a thing like water once a week ,or water once in 2 week.Comon !
Silver or silverish roots!WATER!!!
GREEN ROOTS !NO WATER?
This is very educational and informative. Now I know how to buy and take care of it.
Thank you so very much
I have a question about a dendrobien orchid. I purchase one at an orchid show about 3 yrs ago. It was flowering at the time. It has notbloomed since but has roots coming out of the sides of the plant everywhere along the stems. What should I do to get it to rebloom and why are roots coming out all over the plant? Help.
Fertilize appropriately. Needs a slight temperature change to trigger a bloom. If its indoirs, are lights off at night? It needs filtered light in daytime only.
Fabulous information!
I love to learn with you! Thank you!!
This info is wonderful, thank you for this no nonsense, useful. I am new to orchards, I got one for my husband’s passing 10 years ago it died. I’ve wanted to get another one, but then worried to get it but I’ve got one last week. Thank you for this info again.
A fantastic, informational video. Answered so many questions. I feel I now possess the knowledge to increase my orchids and how to deal with them.
Do the moth orchids do well in Lachuza Pon? I can't get the orchid pon but I do have the regular. Will my orchid be happy in that? Also, can I put some Lecca in the bottom of my outer orchid pot and have the inner pot sitting on that to help with humidity?
This video is excellent. The comment near the end helped especially with one of my plants right now. The comment on how to regrow from a spike. Just cut the spike and will try to grow more plant from that.
My Orchids always LAST 6 MONTH'S or MORE, I LOVE THEM!!!
I like the detailed information.I was giving up on my orchid because the leaves were limped and withered.
6:00 Yeah no hobbyist or commercial seller wants costumers to try to shake their plants out of the pots. Imagine you're the third person trying to "check the roots" on that poor plant. It's damaged now. There is soil on the floor, bruises on the leaves and broken petals on the flowers.
Great video.
Take all plant videos with a grain of salt, different places mean different requirements as well as different hybrids from others
Say it...say it...when you have that many aerial roots it is fine ....to cut them...:P. I did it. Showed my orchids who is boss. Me. That many aerial roots, ( like my rabbit's foot fern) are super annoying. I avoid looking at them. LOL. I am a better mom with my Ludisia :)
Whyyyy? Aerial roots are the coolest part
Is it OK to plant it in pumice?
Works fine just keep the pumice small 😁
How about all these videos where I see people put their orchids in a bowl of water? It grows perfectly....
My plant is over twenty years old. How old can they live? I would like to send you a picture, she's huge
Thank you for all the great information. My healthy plants have some old dead leaves. Can I cut those off? When i replant it do i plant it low in the soil to cover the stem where the dead leaves lived?
Thank you for the video. It is very informative. I'd love to see a more detailed video on cuttings and their progression.
What is Green Soap?
"grön såpa" is a swedish detergent, sometimes used against plant pests. it mentions being made from pine oil.
think some plants may not like certain oils or soaps, even if oil/soaps are fine.
i didn't pay attention to when he mentioned it.
"röd sprit"/red spirit would just be a type of denatured alcohol which could be used like rubbing alcohol, but may have specific ingredients.
What to do when the orchid grows a lot… a lot roots in the second year or in 6 months after I bought it? I had to transplant it twice, way too many roots
11:11 the orchid in the same pot for 8 years...how has the medium/bark lasted that long?
Orcid flowering for 6 months, and now growing a new spike, is it time to cut off the flowers?
Don’t agree with the yellow leaf thing as the bottom leaf will drop off sometimes
brilliant! thank you and subscribed now 🙏🏼🌸
I disagree about leaving the orchid in the same pot and medium for two to four and as long as eight years. It depends on the humidity, temperature and watering practice as to how long your plant will survive. Every orchid that I have purchased in recent years are grown in straight spagnum. So as soon as I get it home, you have to take out of the pot and remove all the medium. Then you can change it up to bark, perlite etc. On the whole, this is a great video filled with great information.
If your plant is in sphagnum you don’t have to repot it as soon as you get it home, I’m not sure how that myth got started. It will be fine if the roots are healthy and you won’t need to water as often. Eight years is a long time, but you can probably wait for at least a year, maybe two.
