Here is my case of inadequate slab for your reference. The roots grew out of the slab, in spring, the moisture in the air was high, so the tips of aerial roots were green. When you don’t provide moisture to the aerial roots in dryer days, it will be turning to yellow end. It doesn’t hurt the plant, just as mentioned, it will grow less leaves and produce less flowers. I assume that you are not going to place it in a greenhouse, if you want to keep the aerial roots ends green, you must have different watering strategies for clinging roots and aerial roots. Or you can bend them back to the slab very carefully after watering as possible as you can.

And by the way, is that a phalaenopsis? What type?
