I noticed my indoor Cattleya just started pushing roots when I watered today. I don’t know what kind of window I have to repot if necessary. Should I repot and upsize it? Or, can it last another season in this pot? The media it’s in looks fine.

The pot it’s in is probably about 2 inches on a side at the most. If it needs a repot, I was thinking a 3 inch round or similar sized square.

[I]If it were mine,[I] I'd go up to a 4" pot with medium fir bark. I use clay. You're going to get as many different opinions as there are growers.

Good time to repot. I agree with Dolly ^^ about pot size. And also the opinions part.

I have some 4 inch clay pots laying around so that will be easy to do. Thanks!
