New to orchids! Any tips and tricks to keep them happy? So far I’ve checked the roots, planted it in orchid bark, and gave a good watering.

    Only water it when the roots go grey/silver 🙂

      Is this all roots, or just the aerial ones? Planta keeps thinking there's something wrong with mine when I say "soil is still wet" because the roots in the pot are still green and juicy.

      I would not rely on planta’s watering schedule. It’s extremely vague and generic. They don’t know what type of medium you’re using, how much aeration/drainage your pot provides, how humid or dry your environment is, etc. Water when the roots are silvery gray. If they are still green- wait.

    All the roots. Well the ones you can see lol. If they’re green and juicy then it’s fine. If the bark looks super dry and the roots all look silvery then give it a drink 🙂 does its pot have drainage?
