You may wan tot put in a bigger pot, with good potting soil. They usually come in too small a pit with poor soil. Keep it watered once a week, but let it drain in the sink. Put it in your sunniest window. Come Oct - make sure it gets 12 hours of complete darkness a night. Then it will bloom again. I had my first one blood again this year. I followed this and it worked.
