I know, I know...I committed one of the worst crimes in orchid growing. I left plants in another growers mix!!! I usually always take a plant out of its growing media and put it in mine since I know how it reacts to my environment. Anyway, I purchased several complex paph seedlings from a great grower and left them in the original mix since they were seedlings. This mix retains much more moisture than the mine. I was looking closely at the plants today and noticed that the plants were looking just a little sad. I decided to take one out of its pot and look at the roots. Well, the little root system was almost gone. The leaves look healthy enough and no signs of crown rot. This is quite embarrassing since I pride myself on healthy roots. See my kolopakingii 'Riopelle' roots I posted a couple of weeks ago if you dont believe me
What do I do to save these little guys? I worry that if I try to baby them, they will just get worse.
HELP!
