Orchids drying out too fast?

Hi everyone,

I am wondering if perhaps my orchids are drying out too fast. I have a couple of phals that are in terracotta orchid pots with the slits in the side and they are potted in miracle-gro orchid bark mix. It seems like they completely dry up after a few hours to a day and the bark and pot are back to prewatering appearance. Is this normal and I should keep a weekly watering schedule or should I be watering every time it dries out?
