Witchin, it doesn't surprise me that you think his phal is the same as any other phal and it is his lack of a green thumb that it isn't growing. I know most supermarket phals are not designed to survive. Of course they can survive but it is far more rewarding growing a plant that thrives compared to trying to revive something that has practically been killed by the supermarket. I was just trying to point out what I believe but like with the WHO, unless they have 100% proof it cannot be reported. For months there was no evidence that face masks worked to stop coronavirus. There was no evidence they didn't work either but now months later although there still is no proof, countries are making them mandatory as you would expect them to help even if there is no official proof.
It is common knowledge that fruit is highly processed. Having found a source for you it is even more intricate and scary than I even wanted to know about but here:

I have no evidence to suggest a similar procedure is done to orchids except that they don't grow for 6 months after buying them. You can believe what you want witchin, I have learnt my lesson about supermarket phals and don't bother with them anymore, it works out rather expensive if every second one dies.
This is the kind of stuff that is highly relevant but you are right I have no proof so I will shut up and redact all I have said. Please ignore my statement.
I have never lost an orchid from a reputable orchid shop, not all my supermarket phals died but those are the only ones I have lost. Happy growing everyone
