I'm happy with the result on my phalaenopsis Minimark . She was in very bad state as I bought her. In the past 4 months she grew 5 new roots, one leaf and one week ago I spotted the flower spike. I also have a miniature phalaenopsis that had 4 spikes, two in the middle. The flowers are gone, but the roots are growing like crazy. No idea what to expect. It's a real adventure.

There is also a Phalaenopsis orchid with flower buds coming out from the center in your house. we can't miss where the new leaves will come from.
I totally agree that our plans sometimes need some help. I had similar issues with some of my weak orchids. They couldn't push out new roots throughout the leaf. I gently cut the leaf under the magnifying glass it helped a lot.

In order to help orchids, I would like to observe them carefully. It's almost 2025. Have a happy new year!

@eririn701 happy to you too. You are very close to the New Year. My country is 7 hours behind 😀
Lovely colour on your orchid. Have you ever tried structured water for plants? I recently discovered Mr. Emoto's work and started experiments with this type of water. Allready seen some progress. It's difficult to explain but I guess, the most impact comes from additional oxigen. My replaced orchid is still in bloom, no need to remove the flowers . The orchid is growing new roots. The structured water seems to be a good replacement for rainwater. I collect as much rain as possible, but it doesn't rain often. I'm very happy at the moment with the new possibility using structured tape water. It saves a lot of money not buying distilled water all the time. An interesting trial is in progress. I'm excited to see the result.

I have never tried structured water. Does that mean that hard natural water is bad for orchids? In Japan, we have soft water and use tap water after filtering it with a water purifier. Maybe I should try using rainwater when the rainy season comes.

@eririn701 yes, hard water seems to be damaging for orchids roots and other plants as well. I made this experience over the years. It contains a lot of minerals that seals roots surface . The same happens with skin and hair too. Since I changed it the orchids overall growth improved immensely. All new roots are nice and clean, without any deposit. The structured tape water also contains minerals but it is still very different. Most of the time I dilute it with distilled or rain water to TDS of 100 ppm. This also doesn't make deposit on the orchids leaves. It makes more work, , but I'm not loosing plants anymore.
I love your video, thank you so much beautiful lady, You orchids look good and healthy, What is the best fertilizer you use ?? Thanks again あなたのビデオが大好きです。本当にありがとうございます、美しい女性。 あなたの蘭は元気で健康そうです。あなたが使っている最高の肥料は何ですか?? もう一度ありがとう

Thank you for your comment! As for fertilizer, I give rice grinding juice during the growing season.
Good luck with your orchid. In my experience is that a dehydrated orchid will easier recover than one with rotted roots. It seems as the misery in the shops is universal. Such a shame.

It's reassuring to hear you say that. It's been a little warm lately (around 20 degrees), so I hope it recovers safely.
I also grow orchids indoors. I want to avoid direct sunlight and I don't want insects. Unfortunately, in my room, there is not enough insulation, so there are large temperature differences indoors. But this may encourage orchid flower bud formation and result in more flowers. You also have a lot of new spikes, that's sound nice !
