Check the roots sounds a good idea, I'll definitely do it. And yes, I thought that watering only once a week would not be enough. I'm treating the scale with a mixture of 1 L of water, 2 tbsp of baby oil and 2 drops of dish soap.
And tomorrow I'll check the roots to see if they are dehydrated or rotted, to know what are the next steps.

Thanks you! It's a pleasure and really exciting to join the community, to learn and to see too much passion for the orchid world.
I meant that I'm starting my collection
Sorry, I'm from México, maybe its a vocabulary gap haha and I'm not using the words correctly.
