yuck
Normal case for a phal loosing a leaf is it yellows and falls off over time.
Found one of mine in a case I'd never seen before. The inside of the leaf had sort of liquefied, leaving me with a sort of water balloon effect. Definitely yucky! "Normal", or could I have some strange disease in my plants? I'll be away for a couple of days so I may not be able to reply, but appreciate any help you guys can offer. Thanks!. |

Googled around and found "Soft watery bacterial rot". Seems close to what I
saw. Does it spread between plants? "eeyore" wrote in message ... Normal case for a phal loosing a leaf is it yellows and falls off over time. Found one of mine in a case I'd never seen before.

Yes, if water spalshes or drips onto another plant.

It is a bacterial rot and must be removed "carefully" to prevent spreading and--- loss of the plant. Bill |

Thanks much for the information. Not sure how I escaped this until now.

I escaped it when I had a smaller collection that I could watch better.
When I had 80 orchids or so I could look each one over as I watered, dry any water that collected in the crown/axil and kill off any bugs easily by squishing them *G*. If it helps any I understand the growers in Hawaii who supply dendrobium cut flowers have had it happen where one of these rots will collapse a whole commercial greenhouse into a smelly soup in a matter of days. Ick. So we aint the only ones it happens to! K "eeyore" wrote in message ... Thanks much for the information. Not sure how I escaped this until now. "K Barrett" wrote in message . ..

80 as a small collection? Makes my 60 sound measly. I'm still in the
squishing phase. Hope this doesn't travel. Thanks again for the help. "K Barrett" wrote in message . .. I escaped it when I had a smaller collection that I could watch better.
