Miltoniopsis recovery advice needed.
Hi Guys,
I have acted rather hasilty in reaction to discovering root rot.
I bought a Miltoniopsis noid from a diy store in the summer. Had no idea how to look after it or water and got some root rot going on. When i figured out what had happened i decided to repot straight away. As i did i realised the rot had spread up into the main plant as the bulbs were brownish inside. i cut the 'rotten' plant bulbs from the two tiny healthy ones. I was very careful with the roots and it seemed like i saved a few. I watered the plant in to its 60/40 orchid compost/perlite mix and have tried to let it dry out a bit recently.
Do you have any tips to treat the poor little ones? i realise now its looking safe its not suffered from rot i should start watering thoroughly?
Help me please peeps!?
