There is an opinion that orchids (phalaenopsis) transplant It is carried out very badly and this can be carried out only with an extreme necessity when the soil in which they grow, decomposed completely. Honestly, 
I AM replancing orchids at home In silence and in full alone: \u200b\u200bthere are no working radio, televisions and any cats by cats or dogs and any relatives. With a transplantation, I adhere to not for one skelter, but completely all the plant, laying the substrate slowly and very carefully. The location of the roots I try not to change, but between them, I exhibit pieces of moss and bark literally one piece. Basic in the transfer of orchids - Do not damage the beginning of the root growth, you need to touch with the greatest caution. And then in the new substrate orchid moves without stress and negative "emotions" absolutely at every stage of development, excluding, of course, the period of flowering.
After a week, I do not water the plant after a transplantation, only spraying slightly - I give all the rays to heal. And then watering already produce as needed - it all depends on the illumination, temperature, volume of pot, air humidity, the form of the orkhіda and the size of its leaves ... difficult, is not it? But there is one very simple method to determine if orchid need to water: just take a pot in my hands, and by weight you will understand - a raw substrate or dry. The pot will be either heavy or easy. If at least the slightest doubt arises - do not water in any way! Pleight ... Tomorrow, the day after tomorrow. Orchids are "air" creatures, the excess water is much more dangerous than its absence. Even if for the month of the plant without water to leave, nothing happens is bad, and one excessive watering can be normal breathing to deprive the roots, and they will die, and the plant will die.
