justloveorchids is on a distinguished road
i live in the UK and phals are currently indoors

plan on having them in my South facing Conservatory for the summer which should resemble Malaysia/.thailand heat at times but cool in the evenings

guess a gravel bed would be helpful on the humidity stakes

i know not to over water and to keep things sterile

its how to carefully repot what appears to have been put into too large a pots by well meaning amateur

Theres green healthy roots along with shrivelled brown ones

Can i cut off the dead roots or even part of the base below the air roots and first set of roots

Will try and post a photo of what i am dealing with
