Hi everyone, it's Annabel, welcome back to my channel. Today I filmed some of the routine repots I am doing at the moment, this time for some awkward orchids: two climbing oncidium types, one with a bad root system failing to get roots into the pot, and one climbing Gomesa crispa. We are also repotting my two Zygopetalums: what I believe to be the Zygonisia rhein blue angel, and the species Zygopetalum crinitum. This is just filming what my thought process is on repotting, talking a bit about each orchid, changing the setups and how I am starting to DIY reservoir gauges. Hope this is useful!

Hope you enjoy the video! Background Info + Links below!
