First and foremost, thank you for visiting our site. I'm glad you found the information provided helpful. There is no problem with repotting an orchid that's in bloom. It's not recommended, because there is a possibility that you may loose the bloom, but that's about all that will happen. The only time you don't re-pot an orchid is when it's cold. The shock of the cold weather, together with that of the re-potting, will damage the plant. I hope this information will help.

@mrjoemango03 Is it possible to replant an orchid like you showed while it is in bloom. I have been having trouble with mealy bugs and was hoping this would be a solution to my problem. I have already lost 5 orchids. Please help me out.

I just stumbled upon your channel and wanted to say that I have really enjoyed reading your video posts.

I tired to watch parts one and two, but as far as I'm concerned, I can't take any grower / gardener seriously if they won't get their hands dirty. Additionally, plants have survived a long time without human intervention without latex gloves, scorching hot pruners, and rubbing alcohol. This is overkill.

@eblasphamy1 I'm just glad that you didn't go out of your way to spell words correctly. And the rest of the world wonders why Americans seem less intelligent with each passing year...

You forgot to mention that even if the plant is not growing out of the pot, it needs to be repotted at least every two years so the mix doesn't break down too badly and start to rot the roots like what has happened to the plant shown in this video. It's nice to see how mass growers repot their plants though, because it takes me hours to very gently remove all the old mix etc, but I have too many orchids now to spend that much time repotting. Thanks for the video.

Thank you for pointing out an important piece of information. As you mentioned, you may need to re-pot an orchid because the mix has begun to breakdown. Remember that if you grow them outside, or they get watered too often, it is best to use lava, or aliflor and no woodchips so they don't rot. An added benefit to using just rocks is that they don't breakdown as quick, and you don't disturb the roots, something that is inevitable during the repotting process. - The Orchid Doctor
