Those baby flasklings looked pretty good to me, so I think the vendor didn't do anything wrong! It just takes a lot of practice to get this type of growing right. I noticed on my flasklings that if there is any media left in the nooks and crannies of the leaves they would rot.
I also kept my little ones too wet for too long and that caused a lot of them to rot. Once they were out of the flask about a month, I realized they need to dry pretty thoroughly between waterings. Its a fine line to walk in terms of keeping moisture levels correct as they age. I'm specifically talking about my Catt. violacea and Epi. conopseum seedlings, both Laeliinae that will have similar requirements to your own plants.
And don't throw away the plants that are still alive!! Those are the ones that you likely grew well and they are the ones that will tell you how to be successful in the future!
