Please advise: keiki on phal that lost all leaves
I have a NOID phal that has a keiki encouraged with keiki paste. It slowly started losing it's leaves and today the last leaf was on the floor. The leaves started out looking splotchy and turned yellow then brown before falling off. It just has the little center which looks and feels limp. It is in s/h and I checked the roots a couple of weeks ago and they look ok. Not great, but not dead.
What can I do to save my keiki? It is not big enough to plant, as it has no roots yet. This is my first keiki and I have to admit to great love for the little thing. I realize mama is surely a goner, but can the keiki survive? Also, if my orchid has a disease or something to cause the problem, is the keiki affected?
