Hollow rotten roots of orchids, cut the roots to dry and change the pot to change the plant material, can it be watered after the pot? When is it watered?

Today, Lanyou asked a question: for orchids with hollow rotten roots, can they be watered after the roots are cut and dried to change the pot and plant materials? When is it watered?

Lanyou asked about the watering of empty root orchid after treatment. First of all, we have to know how empty root orchid is formed. As the good farmer said earlier, the empty root orchid is mostly caused by the long-term drought of the plant. Unlike the rotten root, the empty root orchid is relatively easy to save, but it also needs to be paid attention to when watering.

The good farmer suggested that all the empty roots must be trimmed clean when changing pots, otherwise these empty roots will rot and cause infection of other orchids. After pruning, the empty root orchid can be hung in the shade for half a day, unlike rotten root seedlings that need to dry their roots and Reed heads. Plant material humidity should not be too high, hands feel a little wet feeling, put on the basin in a cool and ventilated place to slow seedling for two nights, and then a small amount of water, and then normal management after ten consecutive days.

If the empty root orchid suddenly meets the flood, it will also rot the root, so it should be watered in a small amount at the beginning. In order to take pictures of farmers raising orchids over the years, I have only seen orchid seedlings drowned in water. I have never seen orchids that have dried to death.
