Velleta,

Not a catt expert, but I would think it may be due to the repotting and if you wait it out the next few growths may mature and then it would go back to the normal shoot/mature/flower/shoot routine. The roots look good, so I'd wait for another cycle to see if it continues.

Hey, it's new growth, be happy :)

Bob

Thanks Bob,I am elated its just that I really want to keep it alive and I know orchids normally mature a new shoot before putting out another one.well I will just relax and let it do its thing.thanks again. Velleta

Hi Velleta,

Glad to see you're giving catts another try.They are my favorite orchids . Good luck growing .

Thanks Allymarie, I really do love them too and I get so disappointed whenever I loose one.But I think I will be more successful this time around.As stated before I am heavy handed with water so I went with straight charcoal as medium this I think will help with the overwatering issue and it has lots of healthy roots so hopefully,this is the start of a catt that will grow and bloom.ðÂÂÂðÂÂÂ.Velleta

The roots look very healthy and that is very important. I'd be interested to see the pot in 2 or 3 weeks. I'd like to see where the roots go. If few or no roots go back in the medium the plant is telling you it does not like it. And if that then that is why you are seeing a little different behavior. But maybe it likes it and dives into the mix. Time will tell. Cats usually like to dive in. Generally.

Is it getting enough sun? The picture looks to be in a shaded area maybe?

Thanks shavedmonkey,I will post a pic in another week so you can see.as for the light I moved it from its regular spot to take the pic,it gets shaded western exposure so hopefully that light is ok.Velleta

Give it 2 weeks Velleta. Give the roots a chance to find their way. Light seems perfect.

Ok then,its a date.see you in two weeks,and thanks again for responding,I feel so much more confident its gonna be okðÂÂÂ.Velleta
