- have you been doing your daily root soak in hydrogen peroxide? Get to it!
- left plants on the dashboard of your car, in the sun, while you work your day job? Those leaves won't scorch themselves!!
Seriously though, nice Cymbidium. |

In my experience, when Cymbs are poted into a too large pot, they set back.
But let's see how yours will behave.

Don't forget - "and I've been feeding it 4 tablespoons/gallon as it wasn't growing well, but now it looks worse!" |

Take it out NOW to look at the roots. Chop out anything with any spots. First I think you should cut off all the spikes. You don't want to stress it.

Hahaha very!
I’d put this right up with the golden elf one. They like it hot and wet. I’d imagine they be even happier at your address!
