Thank you and yess!!! They were definitely a steal they sell them in discounted prices just because they don't have flowers or because they don't look so brilliant! Yeyyy for me !!

Yay! Three dollar orchids are always awesome!! They are really pretty! I like the one with all the spots! 
...on a side note, what do you have them potted in? From your third picture, it almost looks like its got potting soil/peat moss in there with bark? Or is it Spag moss? ...But, it could also be my bad eyesight... ?  |

Be very careful with miracle grow, make sure that the soil really is completely dry before you water. I would stick a skewer in the pot to make sure is all the way dry.
Nice plants by the way |

Discounted Phalaenopsis Orchids
Plus one, for what SlipperGirl warned regarding MiracleGro. If you can find Better-Gro Phalaenopsis Mix--usually right next to MiracleGro, it costs about US$2 more than the other product--it will be worth your while to repot it ASAP. I made the mistake of repotting my Phals in MiracleGro and within two weeks, the plants were in distress. I found warnings against this product on the OB and got recommendations for the Better-Gro product. There are better potting media that you can mail order but the Better-Gro product is good enough for me.
