Just joined. Looking for help: Just received a Paph. QF Makani (violascens x leucochilum) yesterday afternoon from an Etsy seller. The leaves looked fine when I took it out of the box. It did come loose from its pot during shipping and two of its longest roots had snapped off. I watered it and immediately look a photo to leave on the review.
Today (~24 hours later) I see some brown spots on the leaves... it doesn't seem like typical browning dry edges that I've experienced. I don't have much experience with paphs, but this seems really rapid (this happened in the past 24 hours).
Humidity has been around 50% (Im in Norther Nevada, its dry here, 50% is high). It is in the same potting medium that it was shipped in. I only added the moss on top an hour ago after I noticed the brown spots. The water is high in minerals.
Any advice or help would be greatly appreciated.
