White fuz in my bark medium!

[Devogenes]

I did just water them yesterday.

It's hard for me to tell how broken down the medium is. It certainly doesn't look fresh. I believe it is quite old, as the store actually has actually just put the plants on sale, so I imagine that they've been sitting on the shelves for a while.

There are still a few flowers on the plant (it lost about half of them). But if it isn't too dangerous to repot them in bloom then I'll probably give it a shot. I'll also look into getting a fan to improve circulation.

Thanks so much for the advice! I didn't realize you could wait until the roots went gray to water. I figured that by the time the outer roots were graying the plant would be in trouble.

@bil Yeah I think I'm going to pot these phals up. I understand that they are typically kept root bound, but these particular plants seem pretty root bound to me. I'm going to try to find some slightly wider pots for them.
