one leaf has a large, not spot really but a large portion that is especially hellow, and in the center of that yellow area it gets kindof brownish and the texture is very lumpy. the yellowing began shortly after i picked my plants up from my friends house who was caring for them while i was away on vacation. i am really worried about my baby, and dont know what to do to help save it! the leaves are all still basically the same as they were when they were healthy, but just yellowing, not wilty or anything. i dont know how to proceed in caring for the plant, especially as the corwn(center leaf, right?) is yellowing too. i was told to try and save the crown at all costs, but how should i proceed? help me please please please!!
I am so worried about my phalanopthsis orchid! the leaves have yellow on them, especially around the edges.?
Hard to say what could have caused this.
It is possible the plant got too much light.
Does your friend have a water softener? Don't use soft water on your plants. The salt used in water softners are toxic to your orchids.
If it were my plant, I would first take it out of the pot and see if there is root damage.
If the roots are firm and otherwise look healthy, flush by holding plant under running water (or immerse for about 15 minutes) and repot in fresh medium. Don't fertilize until you see some improvement.
