Why orchid buds fall off?

This is a phenomenon called bud blast. Buds fall off for a number of reasons, but the most common one is temperature fluctuations. When an orchid’s environment is too hot or too cold, its buds will drop off. Other reasons include lack of light, over-fertilization, and poor air circulation.
