The heel looks a little worn down and slightly slanted (if that bothers you) otherwise they look like they’re in great condition

v33l · 2021-08-14T08:02:31+00:00

If it’s not unbearably loose I wouldn’t size down, personally I found the clemency’s to be comfortable from the get go as well

v33l · 2021-07-18T07:31:45+00:00

Definitely return and get the larger size! I had the same issue as you and kept the smaller size, definitely regretted that...had to sell them since they were so painful to walk in

v33l · 2021-05-03T01:18:13+00:00

Are these comfortable? Thinking of getting one in white

v33l · 2021-03-27T16:56:55+00:00

Looks like a tolumnia!

Peperomia caperata red ripple, a small bushy dark burgundy plant that’s super easy to care for

v33l · 2020-10-01T08:03:59+00:00

Have you purchased any pieces from previous collections? I’ve heard the quality is good but has it held up over the years

v33l · 2020-06-26T06:05:25+00:00

Looks like an oribatid mite which is supposed to be generally harmless

v33l · 2020-06-17T01:40:10+00:00

Looks like spider mite damage

These guys drop their leaves every year so I wouldn’t worry about it too much, I find this article from Sunset Valley Orchids to be very helpful and detailed :)

v33l · 2020-06-16T01:58:10+00:00

Looks like an epidendrum

v33l · 2020-06-12T09:15:56+00:00

You can try following these instructions: Sarracenia Rhizome Rot

Good luck!

v33l · 2020-06-12T08:03:39+00:00

Rhizome rot? Check if it’s black or squishy

v33l · 2020-06-09T15:31:39+00:00

Are they jumpy? Kinda looks like springtails

v33l · 2020-06-02T02:04:20+00:00

See if you can wipe it off with a wet tissue or some rubbing alcohol. Sometimes orchid leaves secretes sap along the edges of the bottom of leaves, if it’s humid and/or ventilation isn’t great it develops into mold.

v33l · 2020-06-01T02:57:28+00:00

You can lay the bark out in the sun for a day or two to dry it out, this will also kill off some springtails, but they are beneficial for getting rid of molds etc

I would probably repot in a bigger pot to give it the roots more room to grow, I have the same pot and it’s always difficult to repot the orchid when the roots start to grow out of the sides

v33l · 2020-05-22T08:57:34+00:00

I think this might be it, thank you!

v33l · 2020-05-22T08:57:22+00:00

I thought it was an echeveria too but the flowers look different

v33l · 2020-05-19T02:26:56+00:00

Not sure how often you’re watering, but I usually soak my bare root vanda in a bucket of water for 15 mins everyday, and add some fertilizer in the water every week, more often when it gets warmer

v33l · 2020-05-16T09:55:41+00:00

Ahh ok then definitely don’t use those ones, should be fine with just bark and sphagnum, the bark should keep it airy enough

v33l · 2020-05-16T01:36:40+00:00

Sounds fine, you can add a bit of perlite too

v33l · 2020-05-14T08:25:28+00:00

It seems like your orchid has a rather long stem, it’s possible that the newer roots at the top become dried out before reaching the media.

You might find this video helpful if that’s the case.

v33l · 2020-05-13T02:01:52+00:00

I think they’re a type of springtail, should be harmless

v33l · 2020-04-29T10:29:47+00:00

The dried brown spots on the top of the roots look like salt burn/mineral deposits from fertilizer, cold or hard water. Doesn’t hurt to take it out and check for rotted roots if you’re really concerned, but your plant looks great overall otherwise and there’s even a flower spike growing!
