Orchid Focus Repotting Mix is composed of selected and graded bark for a superb balance of air and moisture content that is essential for orchids. Why Repot an Orchid: Orchids need to be repotted every 12-18 months in order to replace the bark, which degrades over time and starts holding too much water. Repotting will rejuvenate the orchid and encourage vigorous growth and re-flowering. What You Will Need: As well as Orchid Focus Repotting Mix, you will need a pair of scissors or secateurs or a sharp knife, and a clear pot of the appropriate size. Clear pots support root photosynthesis and make it easier to see when water is needed. When to Repot an Orchid: The best time to repot a Phalaenopsis is in the spring or autumn; it is best avoided during the high summer. Avoid repotting when the plant is in flower.
