Default good grief

all that stuff is fine i guess ill have to snap a picture so you can see what im talking about better because its not the bulb or the watering or the humidity its the formation of the leaves im talking about nothing else....otherwise i will just continue with my assumption thats its genetic. its happening on 2 of the babies it has and theres 2 babies that are totally not affected from the same parents... both parents have this wrinkle above the bulb issue .. the parents are the only ones with ever so light wrinkles (on the bulb) and those ahve been there since purchase....no other bulbs have it that are younger... i am very tedeous with my orchids on temp. and water and everything




please view images before any more watering or humidity comments

It really does look like leaf pleating due to insufficient watering. I have several like that. Once I increased the amount and frequency of water the new growth was fine. During the summer when it's warm and these guys are actively growing I sometimes have to water 2-3 times a week.

It doesn't take much to cause this. Even forgetting just one watering will do it.
