Cymbidium spike rotted. Now what?
Default Cymbidium spike rotted. Now what?

So, my first Cym spike has rotted (not first ever, it bloomed last year, I mean first to rot.) I've pulled it out and off the plant, but is there anything else I should do? I don't want the rot to spread. The rest of the plant seems healthy still. The background to all of this is that I had to unexpectedly move house during the summer, and am now growing in less-than-ideal conditions so am concerned about the longer term health of my orchids.
Any more experienced cym growers, please let me know what to do!!!
Thanks!
Kay

Are you able to post pix of the plant?
What conditions is it growing in?

I'm a bit baffled as to what may have caused that - my Cyms sit out in cold nighttime winter rain, and spikes haven't been harmed.

I'm sooo not an expert, however, so maybe some of our cym experts will chime in ...
