The main purpose of repotting is to provide fresh media, not necessarily a larger pot, but pot size should be selected according to the size of the root mass. Most orchids like to be a little tight in their pots. Orchids transferred to overly large pots tend to concentrate their energy on root growth and may not show new growth or foliage for several months.
Orchids may be potted in different types of pots: plastic, clay or decorator pots. The type of pot selected may influence watering frequency. Clay pots require more frequent watering, as they will dry out a little faster. Always select pots with drainage holes. It is recommended to place pieces of broken terra cotta or hardwood charcoal in the bottom of the pot to protect the roots from standing water.
Repotting Procedure
Gently pull out the orchid from the pot.
Remove any dead roots or rots affected by rot with a sharp, sterilized blade.
The new pot should be sizable enough to accommodate at least two years' growth.
Place the plant in its pot. The most mature growth should be positioned against the side of the pot.
Fill with this mix. Never reuse old potting mix.
Fertilize and water.
