Orchid Newb Saying Hi. :B
Hello! I just received a Doritaenopsis Sogo Yenlin from my sister. Knowing about Phal Orchids, I placed the Sogo Yenlin in a Sphagnum/Perlite/Bark mix. I water it distilled water every week morning, and it receives light from a roof light. Anyway, I hope to learn much about Orchids, and expand my collection albeit more when I become more familiar to the types or orchids and their care. Wee!

Welcome to this site. You'll find it is very helpful. On another note, I don't quite understand. Are you watering once weekly or every morning? Once weekly should be plenty.

I water it once a week, and in the morning of that day that I water it.  |

Welcome to the Orchid Board. SOunds like you are starting off right with your Phal. But be careful, that plant will probably be the introduction to a very deep and long addiction to Orchids,
