one leaf has turned yellow! -.-'
 

Hey
This is my first time here, and this is my first orchid. It was doing fine it is original place in the house, but it was away in a room that i rarely use! wanting to enjoy it more i moved it into the kitchen, in a window with direct sunlight, and were it probably drops close to 0 C at night. Now she seems to be having some problems. One leave has turned very yellow and with black spots on the top and almost pinky/red/purple on the bottom. The other leaves that weren't facing the window seem to be doing better, they are a little discoloured dark, but now yellow. I have some pictures attached, i was hoping someone would be able to tell me if this is something i can turn around and if so how!

Thank you
Amy

how often do u water the orchid. you can cut the spike.. just below the node hopefully a keiki would grow. i think you should put it somewhere shaded.

direct sunlight is bad!!!! looks alittle sunburnt to me...

That is sunburn!! Phals cannot take that much sun -move it to a location where it will get bright light, but not direct afternoon sun. You will cook the plant if you leave it there...trust me, I've done it recently :(

hey
thank you, that is what i thought was the problem, i just wanted to be sure. Now, is there anything i should do for it? Should i cut off the leaf? Do you think the rest of the plant will be able to pull through?

I don't disagree on the sunlight issue, but that's a Phalaenopsis and you said it is in a room where night temperatures can hit 0 degrees C??? Phals are tropical plants, and temperatures below about 15C (60F) are too cold for them. While the damage to your plant COULD be from excessive sunlight, I would expect to see reddening of surviving leaves as the leaves react to the light. I think that the damage is more likely to be from cold. Sure, the plant doesn't want direct sunlight, but a Phal can take pretty bright indirect light.

I would urge you to put the plant in a location where it gets bright but indirect light, and where it stays warm at night.
