Depending on the growth habit, you may be able to just pot the whole mount.
If not, give it a 20-30 minute soak to soften the roots before you start
trying to pry them off.

I want to pot up a couple of my mounted orchids, as they are not doing too
well under my low humidity conditions. How do I get about doing it without
or at best minimally damaging the roots which are clinging into the mount.

thanks
