| Bad leaf on my flowering dend/phal Hey all, Im new to the forums and am in dire need of your help to save my beloved orchid!
Baught a dend. phal hybrid flowering beautifully a couple weeks ago. Since I'm still kinda new to the whole orchid thing, I've read myself up to dipp it completely in water once a week after its been completely dry for a day or two, which seemed fine. BUT! Yesterday I noticed a leaf gone bad on one of the side "bulbs".
It was turning yellow and had two ugly brown holes in the middle of it so I quickly cut it off. Whats going on? Am I watering too much/too little, sundamage?!
I've read so many different things on what to do with my dend/phal hybrid that I dont know whether to water now while its flowering or just give it a tiny bit of water (dunno if it got to sleep in the store).
Other than the bad leaf just now, the plant looks great ( I guess?) , and the flowers are doing great.
I know its just ONE leaf.... but my last orchid half a year ago, had the same symptoms and it was in heaven a couple weeks later despite CPR.

Reason: should be dend. phal, not dend. plat!
