Cattleya Compot to Individual Pots - my process documented

[Becky15349]

This must have been so much work!!! Thank you for documenting the entire thing for us to see - I've never seen a compot separated like this. I hope they all thrive for you, wow!! We appreciate all your hard work :-)

Thanks Becky! I had a good time doing it + they needed to be separated since they were getting so big in one pot.

Cheers,

Great tutorial Bruce !!! At my age though, I don't buy green bananas, much less baby orchids !

I have been thinking of getting compots or flasks for some time now, but I end up worrying about what to do with several dozen identical orchids when they mature.
.

I feel the same way and I have such limited space. I may give it a shot once though ... The seedlings in the 1inch clay pots look adorable! I am rooting for those 2 guys.
Thanks Bruce for the tutorial.

Bruce, thanks for such a great tutorial. I'm thinking of getting some compots, but didn't have a clue what to do with them, but as usual, you are right there, to the rescue.

I'm bookmarking this one!!

If I ever get the courage to buy a compot, I'll know what to do. This was wonderful info and photos Bruce. Thanks a bunch.
