Answer #1

Hi,

There are primarily two causes for orchid leaves to become droopy, too much or too little water.

Unfortunately, once the leaves start to droop down there is not much you can do to straighten them out. But you can help keep it alive by changing your watering frequency, watering when the media is barely moist. If things get worse, you will see ridges form on the leaves, indicating the leaf cells are collapsing.
