Phalaenopsis New Leaf Stalling: Likely Underfeeding in Moss

Fertilize Weekly; Moss Stays Too Wet

New leaf stuck at 1.5 inches for 2 months = likely nutrient deficiency. You’re only spraying pure water every 10 days. Use balanced fertilizer (or 30-10-10 for bark) weekly at recommended strength. Flush monthly. Organic options: fish emulsion, manure tea.

Moss problem: If mix stays wet 10+ days, it’s compacted or pot lacks drainage. Switch to fir-bark mix for better wet/dry cycle.
