1. Lack of water
Crab claw orchid is a kind of succulent, its leaves are the place to store nutrients and water, it becomes soft and thin, it is most likely caused by lack of water. When we find that the leaves of the crab claw orchid are getting thinner and thinner, we can observe carefully that if the leaf joint of the crab claw orchid grows a lot of white moustache, these moustaches do not grow normally, it is actually the aerial root of the crab claw orchid, because the root system can not get water from the soil, but specially absorbs water from the air.

Solution: at this time the best way is to change the pot to change the soil, choose a flowerpot with leaking holes. After taking out the crab claw orchid, pat off the original soil, cut off the necrotic roots, and re-basin the loose and breathable soil.
3. Lack of fertilizer
Crab claw orchid is its growing season in spring, and it is time for it to maintain its energy, when its leaves become as thin as paper, and we need to replenish it with nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium fertilizer. We can find the relevant horticultural nutrient solution in the shop, which contains the three nutrient elements of nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium. The use of nutrient solution is, generally mix 28 ml of nutrient solution into 4 liters of water and stir evenly. When applying fertilizer, first spray the leaves with water to keep the leaves moist, and then directly irrigate the roots until there is water flowing out from the bottom of the basin, usually 1-2 times a week.
