Problems with phalaenopsis orchid - Yellow leaves and blooms dying
Default

Thank you so much for replying.

I just removed the inner pot and the sphag at the top and there are some firm roots and then some hollow, dry and stringy roots. These are just on the surface, I haven't removed the orchid from the inner pot.

It turns out the orchid is not in soil, it's all sphag, the lower parts are compressed, I must be blind to think it was soil!! In some areas the sphag has turned very pale brown. It doesn't smell.

The pot does have holes in the bottom, at the bottom of the ceramic pot is styrofoam packing with a small amount of water.

Do I take the orchard out of the inner pot or just remove the dead roots on the surface?
