Mount rotting, remove plant? Male
Default Mount rotting, remove plant?

Aloha everyone! I haven't posted here in long time, but I have been reading and enjoying all the info and pics.

My Stenocoryne aureo fulva has been mounted to a small log for four years now. The plant although blooming every year (in fact just gave me two bloom spikes with two flowers each just a couple months ago) has seen better days and now the wood it is mounted on seems to be rotting.






There are roots coming through the log from the top and appearing on the bottom. Along with mold... I sprayed cinnamon/alcohol to try and combat it.



I can lift the pseudobulb pretty easily and can see roots under it. It can't follow the growing path it has because it will just jump off the edge of the log...



Any suggestions? Try and remove... Leave it till the wood rots more? Will it harm the plant? I would really like to save it. Any info would be great.
