I've only had 1 orchid & it ended up dying, I think I over-watered it. I've heard since to use 3 ice cubes a week for their watering, & they like bright light but not direct sunlight. Good luck!
I live in northwest Ohio and I have followed the directions on the tags...I water once weekly by giving each a regular ice cube, as long as you don't forget to do this they will be fine. They like consistency and natural light, so put them in a window with indirect light and leave them there. Do not cut any of the stems that grow out from them (the blooms form on these) and don't repot because if you damage or cover the woody roots on top of the soil you can kill the plant. I lost a few until I finally quit fussing with them and just gave them their ice cubes every Friday, now I have constant blooming and growth throughout the season.
