Well, it's going! Can't say I'm thrilled. For all of you with Phals.... YOU DO NOT WANT THIS DISEASE!!!!!!!! things are better but I still have plants that have disease. If it is located out on the edge of the leaves, it is easy to cut and disinfect but when the crown is affected, I figure the game is over for that plant. I still remove as much as I can flush with H2O2 and then SA-20 and then cinnamon. So far I have tossed 4 to 6 plants away and have a dozen or so that I've kept in the hopes they may throw a keiki and recover. It has become so depressing that, at times, I want to just get rid of all of them and take my chid addiction in a different direction....
WARNING: Always be pro-active and spray for disease.... it may just say you major headaches and depression and plants!!!!!
