Update on my decimated cattleya roots. It’s been about 3-4 weeks and it was time to go back in and see if any of the old roots survived. I had done a pretty thorough job of just cutting away the roots I damaged when repotting as they were CEMENTED to the media. I trimmed away some odds and ends this morning, but I was pleasantly surprised that I had some firm still viable older roots. Hoping they stay that way as I don’t plan on going back in again, unless in a month I smell anything to indicate I have a mess of decay happening. But they seem ok, so I’m hopeful. PLUS! See all the new little root tips coming in? Hooray! The plant will survive. Phew. Now I’m crossing my fingers that it’s not severely set back.
