Default Orchid root question
Is it okay that some roots look dark near the stem (approx 1/4") and then are plump white or green the rest of the way? or does this mean the root will eventually die and is working it's way to the end? or will watering bring the dark section back to life?
Also, I have some roots that are white and spongy with dark ends? I'm getting totally confused with what to cut off and what not to cut off.
Any help would be appreciated...
