Looks pretty normal to me, as phalaenopsis can dump their lowest leaves. I would not be the least concerned unless it continues upward.

Hello everyone. I received this phal in 2014 in bloom. It was a rather large phal and after blooming for four months it failed to bloom for the past three years. I figured it was recuperating ,but it has been a long time even if it was recuperating from blooming. All orchids except the one next to it have rebloomed yearly. It had been putting on good roots. I repotted it in April. It always leans after I repot it.the lower leaves started yellowing and I wasn't concerned because it was the lower ones. Howevever the yellowing is continuing. I don't want to lose this phal so any help in what I can do to remedy the yellowing and then the blooming issue is appreciated. Here are some pics. It gets watered once per week with dilute fertilizer and once a month in kelp max.

So far it has lost the two lower leaves and now the yellowing on these leaves as shown.

Thanks Ray. So far it has affected the two lowest leaves on each side. If it goes to any more leaves do you have any suggestions as to what I could try?
Let's wait and see, first.
Concur with Ray. New roots and leaves look awesome!!. Lets wait and see. Keep us posted
