CATTLEY MAXIMA ALBA DECEMBER REPOT | BECAUSE SHE SAID SO!! #Roots

#Akadama #Terrariumgrit #Orchids
AAAAND, I WAS DOING SO WELL, 😅 leaving this beautiful #Cattleyamaximaalba alone, only anticipating a repot come Spring '21!! Well, the orchid has other plans, so, despite it being the wrong time of year from a human point of view, it certainly isn't from the orchid's rationale! So.... here goes! Also, a media test, because I do not want to depend on having to buy in #Seramis all the time. I am going with a different mix in this repot, but I explain my thought process and how I come to the decision I make regarding the set up and mix ratio.
I really appreciate the fact that you took the time to watch my video. I am very open to any comments or questions, this video may have brought up. Feel free to ask away and know that I will get back to you as soon as possible! Also, if you have any suggestions that you would like me to address in a video, mention them in the comments below and I will be happy to film a personalized video under the series 'Subscribers Inspire'!
If it is the first time for you, on my channel... Welcome!! Consider subscribing for continued insights into my orchid growing journey, I would really appreciate it :)
