What is going on? - Orchid Board

I have a problem ( really?). I got this orchid in July, in spike. It's now bloomed, formed another spike, and has grown a new leaf. The problem is this. I saw that the bottom leaf was turning yellow, and I thought the plant was getting rid of it. Well, now all of the leaves have yellow on them except 2. The other leaves look healthy. I was thinking the plant naturally had yellow on the leaves, but I'm not sure.
Also, there is this bump, as you can see in the pictures. What is it? At first, I thought it was another spike, but it has stayed this way for several weeks.
So, what is going on? Or does the plant even know?

Something else, this has nothing to do with the orchid. I keep getting log off of this site. It just logs me out. I'll be looking and getting ready to reply on a post, then it just comes up and says I'm logged out. I'm getting really mad because I'm trying to upload the pictures, and the *&^% thing keeps logging me out. Is something I'm doing or what?
The pictures are going to be on another post, so at least we can start brain storming on what is wrong with the plant.

Never mind on the pictures, they won't upload and I give up.

Puddin-
Marty mentioned to me that he is having problems with the Orchidboard server today so that is probably why you keep getting logged off. I haven't had this problem myself, but I noticed earlier the pages were taking forever to load, but I am having no such problems now. Don't you give up on those pictures! We really wanna see 'em!

But this has been going on for several weeks. I at first just put up with it, it didn't really annoy me, but I wasn't posting something big like this either.
I'll try on though pictures again. I've been off of the computer for several hours. It kept saying "upload failed."

Perhaps your file size is to large....I have run into that a few times. Somewhere on this board there are instructions on how to resize your picture so that you can upload it. Let us know if you continue to have problems, because you shouldn't be, and I would be frustrated as well

I will try and find the link on resizing if you can't find it. Good luck!

What kind of orchid are we talking about?

Marty · #8 09-21-2007, 11:57 AM

Puddin, can you describe the problems you're having so I can better help you out.

few key things to remember:
- make sure you have cookies enabled (see How to Enable Cookies)
- be sure you always go to www.orchidboard.com and not orchidboard.com - the "www" are very important.

also are you having a problem with being logged in or uploading photos? Let me know and we will fix it up
