Phal planted in s/h

[Becca]

Hi potted a phal. that I rescued into s/h....it didn't have any new growth....not sure what I was thinking. Anyways, I haven't taken it out of the pot to check the roots, but the roots that I can see below the top layer are shriveling up. This plant did have nice big fat green roots and I know the person who had it didn't know much about orchid care so they gave it to me after getting water on the leaf caused some leaf rot that didn't have a chance to spread far from what I could see. My normal experience is for the roots to get mushy and rot when adjusting to the s/h culture, not dry up, any suggestions? I plan on taking the plant out tonight or tomorrow to see what else is going on down below.
