Vandas like to dry out bettween watering, but not bone dry. You might want to try vase culture, which is when you put the top of the plant in a vase, so that the roots dangle free. You fill the vase with the water/fertilizer mix and let it soak, then drain the water off, leaviing just a little dribble of water. The humidity in the vase keeps the roots moist. When you notice that the vase is going dry, water again.
If you prefer to pot it, be sure that it has complete drainage. Mine are in hanging baskets with a little sphagnum and large lumps of charcoal, just so I don't have to water every day, because I also grow them in the house. I fertilize about once a week year round.
Give it as much light as you can, without burning it.
