potting/repotting sedirea japonica in spike
Default potting/repotting sedirea japonica in spike

Hello all, I have a question about potting a sedirea that is in spike. I know repotting phalaenospsis in bloom can cause earlu bloom/bud loss, but what about potting a sedirea japonica with a spike into a new, more formal neo pot? I have a small/medium sedirea japonica (nagoran) that is growing in sphagnum moss in a plastic net pot that has a 3 inch or so spike on it. Id like to transfer the orchid into a ceramic neofinetia pot and do a minor adjustment of the moss to help the roots breath better and not stay wet for too long. I would essentially not completely demoss the roots, but decrease the moss density, as well as loosly wrap some moss around the loostened roots so as to fit nicely in a neo pot. I wouldn't be cutting or removing any of its current roots either. Is this a bad idea or is it ok to go ahead with repotting? I do not want to overly stress the plant, and I want it to bloom, that's for sure. I do believe that removing some of the excess moss could improve root aeration, and it would be nice to have it set into its more permanent pot for its blooms and for promoting growth into its new pot as early as possible. Do sedirea japonica shock really easy and abort spikes? Or , can they handle something liem this, especially if I am continuing to grow it in sphagnum moss? Sould I just wait until it blooms?
