Query: How to identify a dying orchid?
Context: Orchids might die of too much watering. The roots of the orchids will turn brown and mushy. This indicates the rotting of orchid roots. If left unnoticed for days, this will result in the death of the plant as a whole. You have chances to save the plant if only the roots are rotten and the plant top is healthy. A healthy root will be green, firm, and strong to touch.
