Oh and I have the orchids in the shade outside and it goes up to over 100 degrees here; its fine if I left them there or do I have to bring them in?
S California is having a heat wave now. The hotter and drier it is, the faster water evaporates from plants. Plants with weak or no roots can't tolerate losing so much water. Bring them in ASAP!
