Hi! I am new to the site and I have a question regarding roots.
When I trim the rotten roots off of an orchid, very often I see roots that are cream or brown. If I cut off the tip of this root, I see the thread inside. My question is, is this root rotten or not?
The reason I am asking is because I thought that rotten roots had to be soft and mushy. The one I am asking about is firm and yet it is brown or cream colored.
Thanks everyone!
