    Default Phalaenopsis - Dark Green Leathery Leaves

    I got a Phalaenopsis 2 weeks ago. It's currenlty in full bloom. I just noticed the two bottom leaves becoming leathery looking. I haven't repotted since it's blooming so I'm not sure what the roots look like. For the past 4 days it's been sitting in a humidity tray in full direct sunlight (about 2 inches from the window pane). It's in it's original plastic pot. There are drainage in the bottom and I added a few more holes on the side. What should I do about the leather leaves?
