#orchids Any Orchid lovers here know what I'm doing wrong with this plant? Every time it sprouts new growth it gets about this far and then the leaves start to turn brown. the leaf on the left is totally brown while the one on the right gets has sort of a brown tint that spreads until the entire leaf dies.
@ibid when was the last time you changed the dirt inside the pot?
@Jezibaba Probably a around 2 years ago. It's a mixture of fine bark and large vermiculite. they are in a clear slotted orchid pot so I can see the media and it looks pretty good. The last couple of years has been a personal hell, so the watering was a little too sporadic earlier. I think I've got a handle on that now but the same thing is happening again.
@Jezibaba The strange thing is they don't go yellow. they get an overall brownish tint (for awhile I thought it was almost purple) which then spreads until the leaf dies. I've managed to kill orchids in a lot of ways, but this one is new. I'm currently messing with light levels but it's hard telling which way to go.
