Hi! My Phalaenopsis is blooming for the second time since I got her (no idea how many before that, rescued last summer). She gave a plantlet at the top (idk what to do about it), and pushed out a new spike
I'm new to orchids, worried sick about the leaves.
They seem wrinkled, depressed even, but not soft/ squishy. I water based on a moisture sensor, room humidity is stable (around 50-55%), temps 22-24°C indoors, 21°C soil. I have her near the window. No pests visible- not now, nor ever
Clearly something is off. Am I overdoing with watering? Not enough watering? Wrong soil mix?
Any care tweaks please? Need to save my baby 🥲

A moisture sensor decreases in accuracy with chunkier soil.
Does the container have drainage holes?
