This week Plant Lovers I realised I had a few Oncidium type orchids at various stages of their growth cycles so thought it might be a good time for an update! Oncidium types are a great beginner orchid as they basically like the same conditions you do and can grow and flower easily in the average home environment. So in this video we'll look at the growth cycle of hybrid Oncidium types, when's best to repot them, and how to repot them. And I even drill my own terracotta orchid pots and show you how! Plus - I tackle my massive specimen of Miltassia Lavender Kiss 'Lavender Taffy' which is in dire need of a tidy up and repot - and was so big I had to smash the pot! I recorded this in Jan - supposedly mid summer but actually in the middle of an Arctic snap!
I mention Mycorrhizal fungi in this video and this is the brand I use, though you can use whatever you are able to find in your region, but this link does give a fairly good explanation of the benefits of using it: biostim.com.au/shop/myco-gold...
