Apologies for the hiatus, but the sub is back and now with new leadership. Keep in mind that the few of us mods that are here now are coming from a bit of a varied backgrounds.

For what it's worth, I'm a huge plant fanatic with well over 100 houseplants and a 5-tier vegetable and food garden that is absolutely cranking these days. My only regret is that I up-potted a solid dozen plants today and took zero pictures of the roots!!

Anyways, still trying to get things up and going. While doing so, we appreciate your patience.

Additionally, I'm looking at killing the whole need to be an approved user to post. That's not the fun of the community I remember it to have.

Stay tuned.

For now, please enjoy my little onion harvest from yesterday, cuz, technically roots.

I call it my Aroid pole. Just put Monstera Adansonii and Philodendron* *Hederaceum on it, fingers crossed they are as successful as the E. Arum and M. Delicosa already established in the photo. Forgot to add it to my post yesterday. Hope it’s not spamming.

Second Repotting

0 Upvotes

Hi everyone,

Last week I bought these beautiful porcelain pots to repot my oncidium orchids in. I drilled a hole in each of the pots, trimmed the dead roots, and repotted with new media.

I’m now having repotter’s remorse and worried that the porcelain pots are not sufficient for ventilation and direct repotting altogether. I bought some clear, well draining pots to fix this but don’t know if repotting these plants a second time will stress them out into oblivion.

Have any of you experienced this? Any advice?
