Mounting to save P. aphrodite? Female
Default Mounting to save P. aphrodite?

So I lost most of the beautiful roots on my Phal. aphrodite from a very aggressive mold infection. I've gotten rid of the mold, but the plant just isn't thriving or recovering well.
I had put it in nothing but hydroton (but not s/h) in order to make it easier to keep it fungus/bacteria/ickiness free. Obviously, not holding enough water, but allowed me to clear the infection.

I was thinking of either trying s/h, or mounting.
My environment is particularly dry. The plant will be kept in my bedroom where I have a humidifier on at night.

What do you guys think? I've found it hard to find specific culture information about P. aphrodite, rather than P. amabilis.


This is the plant from this thread: http://www.orchidboard.com/community...-chc-mold.html

In it's hey-day:
