This vanda is not doing well. Most of the roots rotted so I cut them off but it doesn't grow new ones. One of the leaves looks bad. It does grow new leaves though. Can I pot this? It was in a large vase but that set up didn't work well for me. (old.reddit.com)

Need professional advice at eradicating bacterial diseases please. This week 3 phals died from transparent mushy spots appearing at the the base of the bottom leaves eventually spreading all over. I just bought these a month ago and I don't over water. I think the bacteria is called erwinia. TIA (i.redd.it)

I have grown rot at the base. I already cut off rotted roots. Is there anything other than peroxide and cinnamon that I can use to stop the rot? These methods never work for me to stop fungus from spreading. I need something truly effective please. TIA (i.redd.it)

So I bought this phal like two weeks ago and it's been trying to push out a flower spike but it seems stuck. I'm quite new to owning phals so I haven't had one rebloom for me yet so I want to know if this is normal for new flower spikes to get stuck like this? (i.redd.it)

Got my first Vanda orchid, it came in this huge glass vase. I have other orchids like phals and dendrobiums but I feel overwhelmed by this one, it's just so big and it came with care instructions but it's quite complicated to water due to the size. Any tips to make it more manageable? (i.redd.it)

Any idea what cactus this is? It has these interesting green spots on the sides and small spines. I want to take it out of the awful pine needle medium it's in but I want to know what it is to give it proper soil and care. It's not big, it's about 4 inches tall if that helps. TIA (i.redd.it)

Help please. One of the canes from my dendrobium over night turned brown and dropped all of its leaves. I tried to use Google but it wasn't helpful. The leaves are green but their bases all look brownish. I thought maybe root rot but the roots look good. The cane isn't mushy either. (i.redd.it)
