Why are my orchid's roots coming out of the pot?

Your orchid's roots may be coming out of the pot because they are seeking more space, air, or moisture. This can happen when the plant has outgrown its current container or if the potting mix is too compacted. Repotting your orchid into a larger container with fresh, well-draining potting mix can help provide the roots with the space and conditions they need to thrive.
