Default Bud blast

Hello everyone: Today I discovered that a spike that was taking out buds, lost them in a strange way, the tips became reddish and even the buds had the red cover. The plant looks healthy and strong and seems to want to sprout a branch, my question is whether it will lack a nutrient or if it is a rare disease. I was reading that in the months of February and March, this can happen inside a greenhouse like a bud blast but why does it happen? All the others are blooming normally and receive the same care.

This generally is due to an abrupt change in temperature as in moving a plant from a cool nursery or outdoors into the house before the buds open.

ive got a cymbidium that i purchased from a greenhouse in very very short spike (not budded yet). The spike grew very well since the transition from greenhouse to indoors. it took about 2 months to get seperated buds (5) but 2 of which has blasted, the plant has had the same conditions since i've brought it home. Any ideas why this was caused?

The changes of place for the orchids are always bad if they are in bloom, in my case, I did not do any of that, since the buds came out I noticed the reddish tip but they kept growing well until now they got yellow, first and then others to fall, is like a deficiency of some nutrient because in that same place there are about forty plants with spike and the others are doing well.
