Total Root Loss After Repotting

[WaterWitchin]

Dry and papery... probably not enough water after removing from sphagnum that likely stayed more moist. Transferring to new bark, you need to water more often than with the tightly packed sphag they were likely in from the grocery store. Next time, don't cut off the dry roots. Even if the velamen came off, the root may still be able to uptake some moisture while the plant is growing new roots.

What size bark?
