Default Dedrobium Petals changed color

Hey Guys!!!

It's only been 3 weeks since I got my first orchid. When I first bought my Dendrobium, the petals were yellow and the lip is purple. At the 3rd week, the petals have now turned Greenish in color. I haven't fertilized the plant yet and I know I should be fertilizing it. Could this be the reason why the petals have changed color?
I placed the orchid close to a window. It does not get direct sunlight but it does get quite a bit of light in the area. Perhaps too much light? I water my plant about once a week. I do have water softener installed in my house. I also wonder if this has anything to do with the petals changing color.
All the flowers in the stem have bloomed and one by one, the flowers are dying off already which I think is normal. Can anyone shed some light on this? Thank you in advance!

Here are the pictures of the before and after. The first pic is the before.... The last two are pics of what it looks like now.
