Orchid bloomers

Hello,
Very new to orchids. I have what I think is a good place to grow them. It is a enclosed porch with a acrylic 50% screen on top. It is not completely enclosed.
I have several orchids in there along with a bunch of different bromeliads.
My issue is that I have had these orchids for 2 years and they only bloomed when I bought them, and haven't bloomed since. I did have one exception, one of them did bloom for about a week this year.
They all look alive and many of them have some new growth. I feed them once a month. I water them depending on the weather. Lately it has been in the 90's and I water them almost every day.
I live in southern california.
Thanks
Bill
