Hi all. I have just signed on here for some help please. I only own one plant. I have an orchid that I repotted with Levington orchid compost a year ago. I keep the plant in a light sheltered west facing window in London. It may get some direct sunlight at the end of the day.
It had a tough few months at the start of the year when it was kept by my tenant in her flat for over a month while I was on holiday. It went in with three flowers and came back with none. It has about 10 now with a few more to come out. What worries me is the leaves are going a bit yellow like nitrogen deficiency.
Is this the cause and what can I do about it. Thanks for any help.

Does your Orchid have sufficient humidity?
Do you mist it?
Are all the leaves turning yellow or just the older foliage?
