different dendrobiums have different flowering times and conditions, for example some will only flower in spring after a dry winter with a 20 degree difference in temperature between day and night, while others will flower during summer or winter, and may not need the dry rest period. if you can, get some pictures of your dendrobium, and ask in the dendrobium forum to find out which type yours is.
most orchids can be given a weak fertilizer once a week. check your fertilizer package for instructions.
