Default Help my Phalaenopsis mariae

Friends please help my Phalaenopsis mariae to recover her life.
Yesterday she was fine and fresh, but today morning I have been finding her in that condition and shocked. I think it causes of bacterial attack. So then and there I used an antibiotic- validamicin 3%L. I don’t know am I right or wrong! Please guide me what can I do for her?

I am not sure. It looks like it could be fungal and viral.

The only way to be sure of viral status is with testing

1. Change the potting media out. It looks like it's very old.

2. Disinfect the wood slat basket.

3. Hope that the plant has good roots.

4. Keep humid and warm.

Throw this plant away right now. Wash your hands after handling this plant. Try and clean the area where this plant was and get some systemic anti-fungal solution for your other plants. This plant will die soon but will infect all your other plants before dying. Don't try and save this plant. Discard it immediately. This is a viral attack and has progressed way to far to be saved. Google "phalaenopsis ring spot virus" and take a look at the first 10 pictures. Then throw your plant away. Now!!!!!

No Galgoa, It didn't get direct sunlight. It was in my net house with other Phal hybrid & species. Thanks for your response.

Ok. Philip. Today I'll do according to your suggestion because it’s too tough to collect the plant in my country. Thanks.

OOOOOOH! It’s very sad news for me James! Have I nothing to do to save her? She is with me from last two years. I think you are quite sure about ring spot virus. Don’t mind, another two-three days I’ll take care & observe her put in isolated place. Then I’ll throw it. Thanks for your guidance.

James is correct...you must throw it out and clean-up, so that your other plants are not affected! Yes, it is sad, but you can purchase another one. Sorry...BettyE.

Aww I wish I had a seedling like the type of orchid they has to discard because of the virus I would send it to him. That has to be so hard to toss something away you loved for so long. Sorry for your loss
