How can I keep the names from fading or washing off my tags I use to identify my orchids?

Frequently Asqued Orchid Questions - Orchid FAQ
You would think the obvious solution to this problem would be to simply use a waterproof marker... but over time these too can -- and most likely will -- fade into an unreadable blur. I suggest using pressure-sensitive tape. The embossed text remains legible even if the color of the tape itself becomes lost. An even better solution is to use thin aluminium foil. Aluminum foil sheets, typically .006" x 6" x 6", soft foil can be embossed or printed for permanent use.

How often should I water my orchids?

ORCHIDS.COM : SUPPORT : FAQ
Depending upon the temperature, orchids potted in bark should be watered about once or twice a week. During the summer, the plants may need to be watered every 4 to 5 days. You should follow this rule of thumb for watering : More heat more water, less heat less water. Plants potted in New Zealand sphagnum moss should be water less often. Water plants once every 7 to 10 days. Some orchids prefer to be kept on the moist side. This does not mean that the orchid like to be left in standing water.
