Repotting madness...
14:00, 21 Jul 2008
So after putting it off for a month, i went out and got a new pot for my orchid. It had got to the point where it was trying to crawl out of its pot.
It didn't need it but i decided to repot my basil plant at the same time. It wasn't the cleanest operation but rest assured it was all squeaky clean afterwards.
I'm a little worried about the basil plant because there was some root damage when i repotted it, but i'll keep you updated....
The orchid is looking a lot less healthy, because its flowers have fallen off.
But i think (and hope since it had very beautiful flowers) that its still alive and kicking. Its still growing in all directions, since i've had it a huge green leaf has grown, as well as the stalk, not to mention the huge root growth.
I noticed yesterday that a second new leaf seems to be growing above the first new leaf...
So its possible i may have killed two of my plants, or i may have saved them, i'll keep you updated as they progress.
