Three Keys to Growing Orchids Successfully

Select a high quality, free draining mixSelecting a mix that is high quality and drains freely is key to growing orchids successfully. Mixes made with low quality ingredients can break down quickly, eventually leading to root rot. Some may even come with harmful bugs in the mix. Selecting a good quality mix provides a solid foundation for a good growing environment. |
Choose a pot with great drainageChoose a pot that allows light to the root zone but also drains well. One of the most common reasons orchids die is due to over-watering. Sometimes, over-watering isn't the growers fault but actually the pots. If a pot doesn't drain well, water will collect at the roots and eventually turn them brown and mushy. Those brown and mushy roots are called root rot and spell disaster for your orchid if conditions don't change. Check out our slotted orchid pots for an example of an ideal orchid pot. |
Fertilize your orchid with a fertilizer designed for orchidsThink of fertilizer as food. It's impossible for an orchid to perform its best without being fed. By selecting a fertilizer designed for orchids (weak and urea free), you can keep your orchid happy for years to come. Our FEED ME! MSU is the gold standard for orchid fertilizers, so if you're in need of fertilizer check it out! |
Why our mixes are different.
Our focus has always been offering the highest possible quality to our wonderful customers. When you buy a rePotme mix, you know that you are getting something hand-crafted, using the finest ingredients from all over the world.
Have you seen our Slotted Orchid Pots?
No matter how great your mix is, it won't matter if your pot has poor drainage.
You may know that we designed and created a 6" diameter slot pot and introduced it several months ago. That 6" pot was so well received by our fine customers that we have now created a family of 48 of them, including the 3", 4" and 5" to join that 6" diameter one. These pots are each terrific for Orchids, African Violets and all plants that need great drainage and airflow to their root systems. Innovation and beauty are in each and every pot!
These are wonderful pots for maximum drainage and airflow. Perfect for all orchid types (and other houseplants too) with no worries about excessive mix leaking out of side slots because the slots are just the right size to contain potting material. With 46 slots around and beneath the pot, you can be sure your orchid will enjoy uniform moisture levels throughout the potting mix. That's important to help prevent trouble caused by too much moisture at the root zone.
Did you remember to feed your orchid?
Our FEED ME! MSU fertilizer if the gold standard when it comes to orchid fertilizer. In fact, it is the gold standard for most houseplants because it is gentle and urea free.
We are proud to offer our customers the authentic famous fertilizer formulations studied at Michigan State University (MSU). Remember, fertilizing your orchid is an essential piece of orchid care. Each FEED ME! fertilizer comes with an instruction sheet and couldn't be easier to use!
