Im really worried about my new orchids. Its my first time having them. I ordered two of them off of ebay, which Im starting to think was a mistake.
Before he shipped them, he put the two orchids through some kind of drying out process for a week so they would not rot during shipping. They arrived bare root and pretty dry. I got them a little over a week ago.
Now the spike on one of the plants looks like they teeny buds growing on it are starting to dry up. On the same plant, I have lost 4 bottom leaves since it arrived. They are turning yellow, drying and falling off.
The other orchid I got seemed fine until today, when I noticed a bottom leaf is turning yellow~ This plant only has about 6 leaves! I dont want to loose it! Can I stop it from loosing this leaf? What is going on??? Are they still too dry? THey are potted in orchid bark and planted in orchid pots (the kind with holes in the side) and I water them about every other day until I see
