Could someone help me.

I have an orchid and I recently switched to orchid bark because I didn’t like how the moss looked and also read that the bark was better. She is losing leaves and doesn’t look that great. What can I do to help her have a nice life? #PhalaenopsisOrchid
4” pot with drainage
Last watered 6 days ago
I just switched mine to bark as well and fellow Greg members said bark doesn’t retain water as much so the once weekly water should be more frequent. I’m trying every 4 days (house temperature is around 69-70 degrees). They also advised soaking to water rather than ice cubes, which was what I was doing prior. I lost one leaf but a new stem might be starting so here’s hoping!
@JoyfulZzplant40 thanks so much for your reply. I will water her today. It’s been a week since I repotted with the bark.
@YeveNoni21 good luck!
@JoyfulZzplant40 thank you. And Good luck to you as well πŸ’™
