Having moss planted with your orchid is a great way to prevent fungus from forming on the roots. At the same time, it will help the plant to maintain the right amount of humidity. To add the moss, follow these steps:

Get a container or a jar that is taller and about the same width as the pot that the orchid is already in.
Put a small amount of RO water in the container.
Fill it with 2-3 inches of live moss.
Then use disinfected scissors to cut off all the dried-up roots and put the orchid onto the moss. Don’t bury it inside because that can lead to root damage.
Put the container on a window that gets a decent amount of sunlight. After a couple of weeks, news orchid buds will start growing from the old orchid.

⚠️ Always disinfect the tools before cutting the orchid. If the tool is not clean, it can spread disease.
