Phalaenopsis has MANY dead/rotted roots; chance of survival?

Thanks for the tip, I don't know why I didn't think of that myself (it looks so much longer the way I originally had it). I hope this is better. Thank you for the link you provided, it's very insightful. But do you suppose I could just put a bag over it and put it in shade? Also, is it true that cinnamon retards root growth?? If so, what should i do about the cinnamon I sprinkled on it?? Thank you

Absolutely. I see that piece of advice suggested quite often in this case. If you can put where it will get a little more heat, it will help with root growth as well.
