I've been told not to water before fertilizing by two agriculture professors and several commercial orchid growers. Fred Clarke of Sunset Valley Orchids spoke to our society last week and said not to water first. I'm working on my notes from the talk and will eventually post them. Fred said he never waters with plain water. Every watering contains fertilizer.

My watering scheme tends to be like this, except on a few picky species.
