Phalaenopsis Crown Rot: Peroxide Won't Help

Stop Peroxide; Crown Rot from Wet Crown Is Usually Fatal

Peroxide just leaves water after bubbling. Crown rot started from wet crown. Repot in well-drained fir-bark mix annually. Water early AM; fan to dry crown. Better too dry than too wet. Survival unlikely if crown tissue destroyed.
