wrinkled new leaves

I have some orchids (not phalaenopsis) which always have new leaves, but the leaves grow, and stay wrinkled. I water them 1-2 times a week, try to give them enough water. Can somebody tell me why this happens, and how to handle it, so the leaves grow properly and not wrinkle?

 

Thanks. I don't think it is dehydrated, unless the problem is that the media does not hold the water. It is planted in bark and the water just goes through. I water it, and then couple hours later remove the water from under the pot. The history of this plant (on the picture) is that a year ago it was very yellow. And since I water it more often, it became nice green. But giving more water did not handle the symptom of new leaves becoming wrinkled. Since few months the plant is in a glass veranda with other orchids where humidity is relatively higher than in the house. It gets lots of light, and a bit of sunshine every day, but not much.

 

You might be right. For long time the plant was wobbly. Since some months it is more stable. It is planted in pure bark. Maybe it should be planted in a different media. The water just goes through very fast when I water it. Does it need a different media that holds the water more?

 

Thanks. At least I know now that it needs a lot of humidity.

 

Thanks. This could be the problem. It is potted in bark that does not the water at all. What media could you advise?

 

Thank you very much for the advices. I will repot it in finer bark and see how it grows.
