Hi Rafal,

Most Orchids in general like to be dry in between watering. Overwatering and under watering have the same symptoms wrinkle leaves. Phal like shade, or morning sun, no direct sun. Phal will naturally loose there lower leaves over time. Place a saucer with pebbles covering the bottom fill water just to cover pebbles place Phal pot on pebbles and this can create humidty. When fertilizing water the day before so any roots do not burn from fertilizer. I would wait for any fertilizing so the orchid can rest, use tepid water for now and water in the morning so plant can dry out before night. Make sure you don't get water in the crown ( where leaves come out) this will cause rot. Clean the leaves off with paper towel and lemon juice. No standing water on leaves, could cause rot.
