Dendrobium kingianum had parts that grow the dry up.

I got this guy ands couple pups last may I think it grew two new shoots and then pumped out a ton of roots it did not have much of any when I got it. seems to be a happy guy it is right under the leds. it gets watered two or three times a week depending on how it dries out. the babies get it about the same they grow like weeds too. but then it grew a small shoot really fast that then went limp and dried up then it pupped out the start of spikes and they just stopped and dried up. up until a month ago it got really light fertilizer in the dip water.
