The Phal abuse ends here.

I only have 2 phals so far so I don't want to be wasteful. Would I flush the plant with the whole gallon of mix or..? Sorry to ask so many questions! I just really want to nurse this girl back to health. Thanks!

You could mix a smaller amount like 1/4 gallon (litre) and let each plant sit in their own little container of this water for a while till it is well watered and then drain it well. Use a sour cream tub or similar for each one and let them sit in water to near the top of the pot for about 1/2 hr. If you have a filter and use water from the tap then use that water. If you have a water softener that uses salt, I wouldn't be using tap water unless the filter removes all the salts. Make sure you divide the amount of K-L-N to be correct for the smaller amount of water you are using.
