overwatered phalenopsis: what to do?

Oct 14, 2007 Last reply: 18 years ago 2 Replies

I have a phal with potting material that retains a great deal o moisture and I unknowingly overwatered. It has two spikes, flowers o one, none on the other. All buds have dropped (flowers have remained and one of its three leaves has turned yellow. What to do?



a) clip the yellow leaf? b) repot in dry medium and water in a week? c) clip back the bare spike?



Thanks in advance for your help.

Starting with the very top leaf as number one which leaf is turning yellow?
