Hey all, I’m new to this group! Has anyone tried keeping their orchid in water rather than orchid bark? I saw on tiktok that they can do well in just water. I’m interested in trying but skeptical

I’ve tried it and it worked, it’s how I saved my orchid.

I heard that it can help them reflower. Is this true?

#### Carrie replied on 2023-07-14

Mine has not reflowered yet, but I’ve also seen the TikToks that show them reflowering. If mine don’t do well I will definitely try water again.
