How do you water a potted orchid?

When watering a potted orchid, water it until the potting mix is moistened all the way through. You can soak the orchid in its pot by filling it all the way to the top and letting it sit for 15 minutes, before draining it completely. Allow the potting mix to dry out between waterings. Water your orchid regularly, but don’t let the potting mix stay wet for too long as this can lead to root rot.
