February Growers Clinic Hands-on Repotting Clinic

February Growers Clinic

Hands-on Orchid Repotting Clinic

Thursday, February 14th, Venice Community Center Room D, 7pm

Joanna Shaw and the Growers Clinic team will lead a Hands-on Orchid Repotting session at the Venice Community Center at 7:00 p.m. They will explain the supplies, tools and planting media, demonstrate basic procedures and share their tips of the trade. Participants will then repot their own orchid with the assistance of several experienced growers and helpers. We will work in teams of 4 or 5 around a table with each person bringing an orchid that needs repotting  as well as a suitable pot to replant the orchid and a sterile pair of shears.

With only two hours available and a large turnout expected, it is critical that everyone adhere to the instructions below:

• All plants must be removed from their pot and all old planting media and dead roots must be removed prior to the clinic

  • Only one plant per person
  • Bring your pot and shears
  • Please make sure your plant is free from pests or diseases.

Media and supplies for most orchids will be provided.

Bring your problem plants for expert help. Guests are welcome.  ccent
