So this is how the plant looks right now :)) I just apply hydrogen peroxide solution daily to the leaves and wipe them in 10 minutes and use milk to get any dirt it might have.Any tips on what do,how to keep its resistance up ?:waving

100% hydrogen peroxide? Ouch! That may be your biggest problem in spreading the issue. Listen to Ray's advice and stop futzing with it.

Cym lady and Ray are right, give the plant a rest from treatment and let it do its thing of healing itself now that you have given treatment. Wait and see how it react to it. Recovery is very slow so patience is key. If treatment does not work you will see decline on the plant it may be slow or fast but if there is no change from now on, you have stop what ever it is threatening the plant.

You done what you can so far now let the plant do what it can:goodluck:

Plus having wet parts everyday is a risk…

Attachment 104786So this is how it looks like at the moment. should i worry because of the yellow ones ? The newest leaf which had the brownish part dropped as well so we have 3 healthy and 2 yellowy leaves.

I would shake as much of the cinnamon off the plant as well as remove it from the roots. Cinnamon dries roots very fast.

The yellowing leafs, this maybe due to root lose or to age. Either way you will lose them.

I would just remove the rooted roots and re-pot in a way that you keep the crown dry and provide good airflow to the roots.
Check this out it may help.

From what I understand the crown has edema and a friend of mine who is caring the phalaenopsis told me that It is for sure.Yet the plants root system became better and the veins in one leaf is lost but as you can see the damage is quite big.

I was wondering how can we enhance a leaf growth ? This is a plant that I don't want to lose so any help would be really appreciated.

Thank you for your support.
