Hi,

I am having problems with some of my Phalaenopsis plants, where the
leaves seem to get rotten and fall off.

This starts as wet spots on leaves, which expands rapidly. Finally
leaf becomes completely soft and slimmy, and they just fall off. This
happens for no apparent reason, and is so sudden that I am unable to
take corrective action.

Please see two pictures I have posted (under the album "Khushroo's",
and the pictures titled as "squishy leaves"). This plant was kept in
my house in a two-plant container, with both plants flowering.
Suddenly, after about 3 weeks, one plant went down. The other one was
not affected.

Any information will be appreciated.

Thanks

Khushroo
