OH DEAR ME!!!!
Purest_heart, the roots on hard cane Dendrobiums should not be brown, they should be a clean white/cream colour.
The reason your Den. is producing keikies is a self preservation mechanism, the plant is telling you there is a problem down at the root area.
Please wet some of those nice brown roots, grab one and squeeze it between finger and thumb, if there is no resistance, the root is dead.
PART TWO
I've just gone back up to your first photo of the root ball and can tell just by looking that most, if not all of the roots are dead.
Have you got another another orchid to compare the root test with???
Bill
