White &quot;fuzz&quot; on phal roots
Default White "fuzz" on phal roots

Hello,
Just joined orchid board, and really appreciate the valuable information. I have a phal which has been in bloom since November, so I have not reported yet, and I recently noticed how the roots are developing some white " fuzz" . I have been fertilizing weakly about every two weeks, and flushing with just plain water on the fourth time. The roots are otherwise green and healthy looking. I was wondering what this white fuzz would be, and if I should go ahead and repot . It is now in just bark. Thank you so much. I hope the photo worked, as this is my first time to try attaching a photo.

To me it looks like white fungus. It may be time for a re-pot specially if you are having new growth. I found this video clip, this may help in identifying what you are seeing with your plant.



good luck,

Liz
