These orchids usually prefer being fairly pot-bound, but I don't like having them be so top-heavy and maybe dry out too fast between waterings. So I repotted them.
Not much to it this time. I just removed the pots and without much root disturbance, filled in with more orchid bark medium around the original roots. I watered them in to settle the orchid bark. They will be without water for a while now, as they settle in.
There is no excess of keikis - new stems with roots growing on top of the old stems. That can happen with too much fertilizing too. So I think they got enough, and not too much. They look pretty happy with the care they got.
