Orchid Plant Family Diseases Information Overview
Diseases are more than a nuisance on orchid plants, if left untreated they can kill them and/or spread to other healthy orchids. Treatment as soon as noticed is the best course of action.
The following is a summary of products that work on orchid diseases that other plant growers have used on their orchids with success. Indoor growers should treat their plants outdoors then bring back indoors after a few hours of airing out or wait until the next day if it’s practical (not recommended in winter). Everyone should buy liquids in smaller quantities to avoid degradation after opening, use liquid fungicides and anti-bacterials within 6 months after opening or buy a new batch.

Common Orchid Plant Diseases - Bacterial Leaf Rot
There are several types of rot diseases that you should look out for when caring for an orchid plant. Some of the more common diseases affect not only the leaves, but the buds and roots as well. If left untreated your plant could be facing death, or worse, it could spread to other plants in your home or office (resulting in the death of several plants, rather than just the plant that it originated from). The best care is always prevention, so make sure that you are tending to your orchid plant regularly, and giving it the optimal care it needs to grow and stay healthy. Read on and learn about this specific type of rot, and how to spot, and treat it.
