I agree with everyone here. Here is a link to a post I made about my first phal that had severe root rot.http://www.rv-orchidworks.com/orchid...lvageable.html The problem actually became worse before it got better in that the phal lost all of its roots and several leaves before it finally decided to grow again. After I got it to grow a few leaves I was able to suspend it slightly above water and just misted it with Neptune's Harvest to get it to grow roots.
