Looking for opinions:) I’m so excited I have my first flower spike! It’s growing towards the window… ***Should I turn the pot around so the flower spike has more room to grow away from the window? ***Or will that stun/shock the plant and stop the flower spike from growing?
You can turn the plant. Shouldn’t cause a problem. If the spike turns back toward the window, you can stake to gently encourage the direction you want it to go
2개 좋아요 Oh good, thank you so much! I’ll try that.
좋아요 1개Mine, even when turned, keep turning towards the window until the flowers actually start to open. So I wait till then to turn my orchids so I get the pretty view instead of the outside world. As MeasomerPi said, you definitely can stake it if you have concerns about it touching the window, or want a more upright esthetic :)

좋아요 1개All that staking talk, be very very careful. Those buggers snap very easily. I myself prefer the natural look, but if you want upright, start now slowly and gently.
3개 좋아요 Getting taller…:) I will send pictures of the blooms I’m so excited it’s finally happening😍
Slowly but surely 💚
