When my orchid is done blooming, should I cut the part they bloomed from all the way down?

    Yes. Or if the stem is still healthy, cut it back to the first node that didn’t produce and it may re-bloom from there. Otherwise if the stem dies then just cut back to the base and it will regrow a new one when its ready.

      Here are helpful diagrams :) it’s the part of a plant where leaves or flowers emerge from - sometimes roots do too

      These help a lot but my nodes are covered in a brown paper like covering on it so I can’t really tell what nodes are likely to produce anything vs. not

      I’d pick one and cut, give it a while and see what happens. You can always cut it right back to the base later if needed.
