Promoting new growth on orchids experiment – success!

Here is an update on my Cattleya orchid which had its rhizome cut to stimulate new growth. If you missed that video check it out here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=COZrsiS1ueA
The result is encouraging right now and the cut section started to develop a new pseudobulb, as expected! This growth will mature and produce roots of its own, while the section will start to bloom together with the fist growth lead.
So far so good, I am happy with the result, but do keep in mind this was done on a pretty healthy Cattleya orchid, if your orchid is severely sick and dehydrated I wouldn’t recommend doing this.
