Got a orchid for the house about 2 months ago, have kept it indoors, it has since bloomed and all, the pot is about 5" or so. It has a few ariel roots that look pretty dried, but the roods going into the woodchips look really green and plump. Water it when the chips dry out about once a week, or so. - anyhow i noticed the other day that one of the 3 big leaves at the bottom wasnt doing too well, and thinking it wasnt getting enough light etc. And put it outside in a very shady location, thinking this would help... nothing really changed, so i moved it back inside thinking perhaps not enough nutrients in the water so took some gardening soil and made a "tea" of sorts, and used the water to water the plant. Dont know what is going on, but one of the leaves continues to die, turning into banana color, the other two leaves and roots, and several flowers are very healthy looking just curious what might be wrong with the plant its 2 remaining leaves are about 6-7" and its stem about 12" with about 6-7 flowers. Is the pot too small? Im pretty new at this but would be nice to hear any suggestions on how we might save our orchid.
