New Orchid Owner (Phalaenopsis)

[benisjamin217]

Hi I'm Ben, I'm new to the forums and to orchids, I'm 14 and live in Michigan, I've loved plants for as long as i can remember. I bought a phalaenopsis amabilis (boring I know) at a local nursery about a month ago. No pics as of late, because it's midnight here. I'll try to be as descriptive as possible.

It has 14 snow white flowers, on 2 flower spikes, aerial roots everywhere, and 5 healthy grass-green leaves. It looks pretty much the same, although it's losing a small leaf on the bottom, which turned lime green/yellow and is wrinkled and leather-like.

I have it about 8 feet from an east facing window which gets a lot of sun in the morning. I water it with a half cup of tap water when the bark feels dry, and let it drain. I made a makeshift humidity tray, at night I sometimes use an oscillating fan. I also mist the leaves and aerial roots in the morning.

Even though I've devoured all reading about the species that I can, I'm still nervous that I'm doing something wrong. Please, weigh in. (btw, thanks for reading )
