# my leaves on my orchid are getting saggier everyday and i don’t know…

_Pubblicato da gabby il 2024-11-23_

my leaves on my orchid are getting saggier everyday and i don’t know why. i googled for answers and it said it’s either being over water, under watered or too much light. i say the watering isn’t the problem because it has new buds. tips would be appreciated!

Anytime my orchid leaves looked like that it was from too soggy/saturated of a medium for too long. That's just in my experience though

how did you fix it?

If it’s dehydrated the leaves get deep wrinkles, this looks more like overwatering or maybe your medium is too dense

i recently repotted it and i don’t think my medium is too dense so should i try to water it less?
