I am not saying that it did not spread, but it could be other reasons that the other plant got crown rot.

I suspect the same might be true. They were both on a humidity tray next to the humidifier and some how it collected mist in the crown, and I didn't notice it right away.
I just want to know what is it anyways that caused that vast amount of tissue degeneration in such a short period of time?
24 to 48 hours?
The only thing that come close to that in human is gingivitis, but at a slower rate.
This is like gingivitis on steroids.
On top of that 2 of my lovebirds chew 8 tiny holes in two of the flowers of the white phal. that I exchanged for yesterday!!! I let them out of their cage for a little bit, I left the room for 4 minutes and they damaged the flowers!
4 minutes!
I am about to pull my hair out!! I was so p****d of that I chased them across the room like a mad man.
Man am I obsessed with this orchid thing or what?
