In the fall, as the orchid is preparing for the next blooming season, use an orchid fertilizer that is higher in phosphorus.

In addition, fertilize less frequently during the fall and winter, when orchid growth slows down. During this time, your orchid can get by with once a month fertilization or less. Some orchid species don’t need to be fertilized at all when growth slows down. Lightly mist the top and undersides of the orchid leaves and roots with a fine layer of orchid fertilizer mist. Misting the undersides of orchid leaves is key, as the orchid will be able to best absorb fertilizer from here.In addition, orchid-specific fertilizer is, as you would guess, tailor-made for orchid use.
