Don't panic just yet  it may just be that there is not enough roots to support that many leaves. Just let it dry up and carefully pull it off. |

Thank you. Just a mild panic. But I didn't want to do anything without some help. |

Update. Finally cut the spike back, so the little fellow could concentrate on the roots. We have lost 3 leaves. He is hanging in there.

UPDATE!! The orchids decided to surprise me this morning.
Bigger one is doing great. He has a new leaf and a new root coming in. First image.
The smaller one is hanging in there. He has a new leaf, but the older leaves are a touch wrinkly. Second image.

Another update. The Bigger Phal has another new leaf and 2 brand new aerial roots! I am so happy.
The little one is still struggling. She was doing so good and then we back tracked a bit.
