Hello everyone! I have a question for you. I have 3 paphs :2 hybrids, of wich I posted one in bloom (the other one I recently bought) and one paph insigne (rescued from a "greenhouse" with half of the roots rotten). They are all growing nicely. I noticed something that I couldn't explain: not all the new roots that emerge from the base of the plants get to grow into the medium. Some of them just grow 2-3 mm then turn brown and stop growing. For example out of 3 new roots only two get to grow properly. I hope you understand what I am saying. Has anyone any ideea as to why this happens???
I also grow phals, catts, dens, stanhopeas, but I haven't seen this in any other species than paphs.
My growing conditions are: temps around 23°C during the day, 18-19°C at night, east facing window, 55-60% humidity. I fertilize using the "weekly-weakly" method. I use medium to large bark, with some dolomite.
Thanks in advance!
