Plant Dying. HELP!

Should I trim her stem (and where) or should I leave her be to see if she blooms again? #happyplants #plantsmakepeoplehappy #orchidlovers #plantaddict #planttherapy

How often do you water? And do you use ice cubes? Also do you switch the plant from the pot to a different one ?

Repotting orchid

I have a few babies growing off the main plant. I trimmed back those stems and have a new flower growing, but the leaves are very droopy. What am I doing wrong?

My orchid looks so sad... I only water it once a week... what am I doing wrong?

Budblast and flower drop.

Droppy leaves have me concerned.

Oh man, am I stoked! I'd inherited a moth orchid around 10 months ago (plus a mini China rose and a couple of scraggly pothos). Zero 'real' terrestrial plant experience. Poor Clint Eastwood looked rough (they all did) with thin, drooping, dark (ever see a green so dark it could pass for black at a glance?) and leathery leaves, but surprisingly had blooms. Now to add a bit of background. While I didn't have experience with typical houseplants, I did manage the biggest tropical fish store in the state for 20 years. We had EVERYTHING. Fresh, brackish and salt. Ponds. Amphibians. Hard and soft corals. Crustaceans and invertebrates out the wazoo. And I got to do whatever I wanted with all of the display tanks, if it helped sales. Getting insane gorgeous results is waaaaayyyy simpler when you don't have to pay for it. Oh, and freshwater planted tanks. Rival the best reefs for beauty. Point being the light, photosynthesis, chemistry, water quality and parameters, and a ton more, that unused in a while knowledge actually translated over to this hobby, at least as solid groundwork, really well. AND I HAVE BABY KEIKI'S! Stumbled across a reference to keiki paste et. al., impulse purchased some, and OMG IT WORKED! And I apologize for happy babbling, lol. Don't have anyone around me who cares about plants, so I think I've found my people here! #orchids #keiki #firsttimer #PlantBabies
