Hello! I just received this orchid a few days ago. The app recommended bottom watering but the pot it’s in doesn’t have any drainage on the bottom, should I repot it? And is it safe to do so?

    YES!!! Repot it into a pot with a drainage hole, you can use orchid bark and it would work great! Orchids are really sensitive to overwatering, so that would be a good idea. Just make sure to repot it once the blooms fall off, not while it’s still blooming. Good luck! 💗🌿🎀

    Check to be sure your plant isn’t in a cover pot. It’s pretty common. If that isn’t the case and it were my plant, I would move it in a pot with drainage ASAP unless you are experienced with keeping plants in pots without drainage. As Cheshire said, overwatering is a significant issue. I wouldn’t do a full repot (don’t remove media or trim dead roots). Move it to a new pot of the same size with drainage holes, keeping the root ball intact as much as possible. The less you disturb rhesus roots, the less chance the plant will drop blooms. And like Cheshire said, you can repot once the blooms drop.
