Phalaenopsis buds falling off Female
Default Phalaenopsis buds falling off

I planted a Phalaenopsis that was still blooming in my vivarium. It seemed to be doing great at first. It has a few flowers on it & a bunch more buds. But, in the last couple of days I've had a few buds turn a light brownish color & fall off. Could this be from being too wet? If not that, then what else could it be?

there are a number of possibilities - the mere shock of being transplanted while in bloom, or excessively warm temperatures come to mind first.

Can you see the conditions of the roots?
It maybe kept way too wet.
