I also fill up the sink, but I only water plants that sit together. You have to be careful not to spread anything when you reuse the water.

I agree with that. Short soaks in the sink works fine if you have only a few orchids that have been together for a some time. Do NOT include a brand new plant in your pool party until it has been through some kind of quarantine period and you are sure that it is disease/pest free. Otherwise you can spread all kinds of problems to your healthy orchids. It is easier to deal with problems with one plant rather than with your entire collection.
