I inherited an orchid from my late grandma that was forgotten in her flat for months until we had time to go through her things. we removed all her other plants when she was hospitalised but didn't see this one as it was behind a curtain :/ I had her for a couple months now and have been following your instructions religiously, and today, she opened her first new blossoms after being completely without for months. This is my first orchid and I cannot tell you how much this means to me. Thank you for the time and care you put into these videos, I hope you know that even years after you put them up, they're still helping people a lot

Same here, inherited 3 off my mum when she passed in march, never had an orchid (as I heard they’re not easy to care for) but I feel so much pressure to keep them alive. I have ordered the medium and pots to cut the dead roots and give it a new medium/substrate. Hope your orchids are still happy in their new homes

Just got my first orchid from my husband,he knows I love flowers,and I’m here to learn how to take care of it ❤️

I just have to thank you for the time and energy that I am sure each of these videos take you to film edit and post. Your videos have helped me to actually be able to grow orchids! Now, I say “actually” for my family who have in the past, lovingly placed an orchid in a floral basket for Mother’s Day or my Birthday only to have it meet its untimely death way too soon. I must have sent at least a dozen beautiful orchids to my compost pile which broke my heart. One day, while shopping at IKEA, they had these tiny little Phalaenopsis Orchids on sale for 50% off. It was as if they knew the grim reaper of orchids was coming their way so they put them on sale to entice me to buy one. With my little orchid in its 2 1/2” pot, I was determined that this little orchid WILL NOT face the same death as all of her predecessors. As soon as I got home, I searched the internet and thankfully, out of “all of the the experts” your name and site, kept reoccurring. I started with your first video and did not stop until I felt that I had a basic understanding of what I had been doing wrong with all of my past orchids. I am happy to report that my little orchid is now two years old. She has flowered at least four times. She has doubled in size and has been repotted. I selected an untraditional pot choice due to a windowsill that she loves. It is my bathroom window, faces west, and the sill is only 5” deep. So I took a decorative toothbrush holder that is 3” wide oval at its widest point, but it 6” long and 6” tall. MDH, drilled 4 drainage holes at the bottom and this is the pot where my orchid had its rapid growth. Thanks to you, my family gained the confidence to give me orchids as gifts once again. For Mothers’ Day, I received a double pot of two Phalaenopsis. They were in full bloom and following your video on how to care for your flowering orchids, my blooms lasted May - October. I was shocked, but I followed your watering instructions to the letter. My last bloom fell on November 1st. I took a photo a few days before when I sensed its days were numbered. While I still had blooms on my one plant, a new leaf began growing. Now, I am turning to Repot Me to find the perfect pots for these two beauties as their new leaves and new roots are bulging above their tiny store plastic pot. My challenge will be my 5” sill once again. Unfortunately, in my entire house, I do not have another window facing that direction nor do I have an area at this time that I could set up artificial lighting for ultimate growth. I can’t thank you enough for bringing so much joy and beauty into my home with these three wonders of nature. You are and remain, the. Internet’s “ONLY EXPERT”!

Because I found your channel and avidly watched AND FOLLOWED every video you’ve made on Phalaenopsis orchids. Soooo, I only have you thank for her amazing success AND for my new obsession!!! You’re an amazing teacher! Thank you again 👏👏👏 ❤️

@gloriamurray9271 Never use ice cubes. Watch some videos. There are several different ways to grow orchids. In Orchid Bark is one way. Then there's water culture and semi-water culture. I follow Danielle's Orchid Ranch on KZread and get so much reliable, detailed information from her. She's got years of growing experience and explains everything exceptionally well.

I struggle with keeping plants alive. I was given a beautiful orchid for my birthday and am determined to keep it alive and make it thrive. I just ordered a new slotted pot and potting mix from repotme and now have notes on watering. Thank you for all of these amazing videos!

The biggest key is finding the right place for light and for me with my yard and location, that means moving the plant during the year. In the winter in South florida, I can move my orchids outside except for a few cold weather nights they come inside. for most jungle orchids is to hot in the summer here. I move them inside then. For me watering is moving them into the rain for a little while but in winter with low humidity I spray my orchids daily with a little mist. They will grow air roots from that and then its easy to see like she say when they turn green and your good. We do have orchids here and they are suited for the weather. Most they sell are from the cloud forest. They are used to being wet. Its is also common for the weather to be between 50 and 80 degrees year round with little variation that near the the equator.

I've had orchids for 9 years I've been watching you for exactly three years to the day! Today! You're great, thanks!

I just started having orchids. Thank you so much for the incredibly clear and right to the point videos, they are extremely helpful. You’re a great teacher!

Absolutely LOVE this video, Danny! So much useful information summarized in one. I was starting to wonder why I see those "brown" looking roots on the surface while I only recently repotted. I might have been overly enthusiastic on my fertilising.

I dont even like to touch the orchids for fear they might explode.

Thank you so much for these clear, concise videos. I’ve been growing orchids for years without really knowing what I am doing. These are so helpful!

Thank you. I started watching your videos the last time I had an orchid too late. I just received another Orchid as a gift and I reviewed your videos and I'm hoping to keep this one healthy

Thank you so much for this video! You always give excellent information! I'm getting so much joy from taking care of my orchids thanks your knowledge!

Bought my first orchid today! Thanks for all the info 💚🌱🧚🏼‍♀️🌿

I am from Hong Kong and we live in small apartments which are perfect for small pots. I also had my first orchid and these videos are amazing and made my orchid a healthy one!

Brilliant video you really answered every question I had with out me asking. You really know your stuff and I feel I have learnt alot about orchids from this. Thank you.

Incredibly informative and your presentation is very straightforward and clear. Thank you so much!!

I was given an orchid as a gift, and managed to keep it for over 4 months as it bloomed without killing the plant (turning the leaves yellow) as I have done in the past. I only needed to water it every 3 or 4 weeks, very likely because the media held too much water. And that's likely why 95% of the roots were dead and had to be trimmed when I replanted. I replanted in Dark Imperial Orchid Potting Mix, and tamped the media down just as you say to in your video How to repot Phalaenopsis Orchids. I was surprised to see the few remaining green roots turn gray and need watering after just over a week. I figured that might be in part because the media hadn't soaked up enough water in its initial watering. So to water this time I placed the pot into a bowl of water as you shown in this video, but the media floated up and became loose and the plant fell over! I assume that's because there are so few roots holding it together, so I will now only pour the water over the top and let it drain immediately. But I'll catch the water so I can repeat the action a number of times. I tamped the media down again as I slowly removed the pot from the bowl of water, and hope it holds firm this time.

I've had unbelievable success with my phalaenopsis after watching this video. I thought I knew how to water my orchids, but after watching, my orchids have excelled with new flowers and flower spikes. I can’t thank you enough.

freaking AWESOME videos. just bought some soil for my orchid and succulents from repotme. thank you so much!!!

I just got an orchid to bloom for the first time ever!! I was shocked. I was never as dedicated before.. back in June or July I started fertilizing it regularly and it just started blooming a few weeks ago in April 2022. I never even repotted it or cut off the old stems. So now I need to find your video for watering and fertilizing for a blooming orchid because I have no idea. It’s been outside in our patio area in Florida for well over a year. I’m just shocked. Anyway thanks for all of your videos and info.

Thank you for sharing Danni!! I've learned to soak up any water from the crown with the paper towel, and I sprinkle alittle cinnamon to help dry up the crown which has truly helped with preventing crown rot!! Also, I have central heating so and use Orchid bark so I've learned that soaking the Orchids really work for them!! But I'm trying a Better Grow bark/moss mix for the first time so I'll try your tip of running water through the medium vs soaking!!🙏🏼🙏🏼

the epitome media is AMAYING my orchids are loving it growing new roots !

Thank you so much for your clear and easy to follow care videos. I got my first orchid from my boyfriend a few months ago and I’ve been able to keep it healthy and happy with your help ☺️

I was gifted my first orchid 5 years ago and I changed its pot every year and had been using garden soil blends and it grew very big and hearty…until this year; I saw yellowing on leaves and black spotting & had 4 flower buds that dropped where the base of the stems were wilting. It’s almost in full bloom now, & know transplanting is not recommended: but my local garden center specialist told me I needed to get the roots out of the dirt. So I moved forward with the transplant. I chose the moss as my new medium and drilled 2 extra holes so there’d be 3 nice sized center holes on the bottom of my ceramic pot for better drainage and lined the inside outer lip of where I couldn’t drill any holes with stone & some bark so the water wouldn’t puddle & sit on the new cleaned up roots. So far so good. I’m so glad I found your channel because I wanted to do this right and keep my orchid growing beautifully & have learned a lot by your channel and wanted to thank you for making & sharing all these videos. ❤🌺❤🌸

Learning to grow orchids has been something I’ve been wanting to do for a while now. I had a purple one and it was doing so well and my mom drowned it 🥺💔& I was so hurt . Got another one this week I’m excited too grow again & im so happy I found your videos !’ There Soo amazingly helpful

Thank you so much for this. Somebody gave me a beautiful orchid as a present but they told me that to water it, all I had to do is put two ice cubes on top of the bark each week. I've noticed it struggling a bit, so thank goodness I'm doing research for myself now.

Your videos are the best on orchid care. I am just beginning to care for several orchids . You r my go 2 for all orchidinformation.

This was so helpful. Literally everything you said not to do I’ve been doing unawares. Time to start over, thanks so much.

I was recently gifted an orchid and I had no clue how to take care of it so I was basically killing my orchid 😭😭😭 so glad I found your video

It is my first time having an orchid 😊 thank you so much for your hard work 👏

My boss likes to bring in various plants to sell, indoor plants year round and outdoor plants spring and fall. Not having a green thumb, I have had instruction on when to water by him, and have been doing research online. Finally took the plunge to start bringing live plants into my home about a year ago. Lost three or four in the beginning but doing much better and have collected a few over the past year. My boss brought in an orchid about a week ago. I have been admiring it but hesitant to make the leap to try to do right by it. Watched a few videos of yours. Finally decided that I am going to try it. Being off work today, I made the trip to get the orchid. After watching this video, the poor dear was in desperate need of water! I was amazed that the pale silvery roots instantly turned green once I started adding water to it, being careful not to get any on the leaves (gently moved them out of the way). Wow! It is in a bark medium but seems a little rootbound so now off to get proper medium and a proper orchid pot. Thank you so much for this!

I am thankful for this video. I had looked up on internet for taking care of the Orchid quite sometime back but was not able to get proper information so I gave up. I have somehow managed to keep them alive and have purchased quite a few as they are my most favourite. Going through your video I am hoping to take better care of my plants. Thanks a million.... from Canada

Thank u so much for this video! I just bought my first orchid today and I'm so excited! I am trying to educate myself as much as possible so I can properly care for it.

Dani, I just wanted to say thank you. I love your videos! They are so helpful. I love my orchid. My first one I didn't know any thing and killed it from over watering. I found a another orchid on clearance. Then educated myself with your videos. Its now about to bloom for the second time and I got me another orchid as well. I noticed the brown spots on my top roots. I was using tap water which is hard so I will switch to my osmosis system. But I also feterlize after each watering.

Your videos are very informative and well put together and enjoyable to watch great job thank you

You really inspired me to repot all my orchids! It took me 4 hours but I believe it will be beneficial. Some were more in need of it then others but I did them all to make a clean sweep. Thanks for all the great info!

Your video is great, and appreciate all the detail info you provide. FYI I have found that using a turkey baster to water my orchids helps reduces water getting on the leaves and collecting on the crown. Also it helps to regulate how much water I am applying which helps with my orchids potted in moss.

Wonderfully informative video Thank you

For the past 3 months I've been watering my orchids about once a week, mom used to do it a little more on a "it's been a while since I watered them" schedule. They live healthy lives on top of my dresser, getting light from both east and west during the day without being in direct sunlight. I think I will try to pay attention to not over-water them and double check that the weekly schedule is actually what they need. I have one that at one point was a little dehydrated because of a poor rootnet, it got leathery floppy leaves. It's recovering steadily and is growing new firm and healhty leaves and more new roots, so I am happy with the progress there. 😄
