I have a Cattleya Fordyce Fantasy. First time blooming for me. Have had it for two years. Grown inside. All the buds have blasted. Possible reasons? See picture.

Possible causes of bud-blast:
  • Mites
  • Insufficient humidity
  • Insufficient water
  • Blast from hot air heater vent
  • Exposure to extreme cold
  • Ethylene gas, originating with dirty gas heater or ripening fruit
