Quickly:
i.e. Freezing temperatures, very high temperatures (such as being left in a hot car), too much water

Takes a while:
i.e. too little light, too little water, not enough Calcium, too cool, not enough fertilizer, too much fertilizer

Thanks, leafmite. That's helpful to hear specific info 👍🏻

Generally, slow growing plants are less likely to recover from cultural mistakes than fast growing plants.

Thanks, isurus. Guess I'm on the path then. But hopefully no killing involved This time; lost some other types of rescue orchids previously. But that's why I'm taking King's advice and resisting the temptation to get Any other orchids till I've grown One well for awhile. (In case you didn't see my other threads, it was Actually going to be A. cochleata...but my B Little Stars started growing well for me...so that's what I'm going with/made environmental adjustments for) 🌞
