Many species of orchid has air roots and they actually will need all this air roots to thrive well. If you plan to separate that section of your plant.. wait until the roots are well grown on them, so that when the section is cut off from the mother plant, those roots are extensive enough to support the new plant. It is sometime a good idea to re-plant your orchid.... very often, you will encourage new growth and sometime flowering beside doubling your collection. Also do make sure that your cutting equipment are clean and sterilised and the open cut are treated with some kind of fungicide after the cut. Happy orchid planting This is normal for an orchid.
