My partner just bought me an orchid from the local home/garden centre. I repotted it as it was soaked through and in a tiny little pot where the roots were overflowing. Now I read that repotting in potting soil is a major no-no.!! :O
I had a phalaenopsis orchid before, some years ago that was potted in potting soil, and it was absolutely fine. If I don\'t water it, will it be ok in potting soil until I can get some fir bark and proper orchid mix.? Likely to be about 10 days.
