Phalaenopsis orchid wilting
Hi, I'm brand new to orchids...I bought an orchid in bloom about month ago. I repotted it when I got it. It has been doing well until now. The flowers are now wilting on one of the spikes. A couple of them are dry and papery. The flowers on the other spike look good, but there was one bud on it that just dried up before opening. The leaves are green. It has been sitting underneath a high southeast window. Definitely indirect light, and I've been worried it may not be enough. I have watered it every 10 days and I let it drain well. I haven't given it any fertilizer/orchid food. The climate here is becoming quite cold, if that is relevant in any way. Is it just at the end of it's blooming cycle? Do I cut the spike with the wilted flowers now? Or do I just cut the flowers at the base of their stems?
