The spots under the leaf you are holding up might be spider mite damage. Take a tissue and press as you run it along the underside of the leaf from stem to tip. If there are red or brown streaks there are spider mites. If so spray the whole plant, all surfaces, with liquid dish soap 1 teaspoon per quart of water. Repeat every 4-5 days for 3-4 sprayings because the soap doesn't reliably kill the eggs.
Phals can grow in many media. The key is plenty of air at the roots and warm temperatures. The roots can stay moist if they are exposed to air. What are your temperatures where it's growing?
