Default Bulbophyllum question

Bulbophyllum laxiflorum, growing in sphagnum moss in a clay pot. Growing
indoors under fluorescent lights (12 inches from fixture) with additional
indirect light from a window. Humidity around 40 - 60% (cool mist
humidifier during the day). Watering has been sporadic this summer, at
least once a week.

Put out 5 new growths, the growths got about half the size of the mature
growths, and the leaves turned black and fell off. The pseudobulbs are
still green and look healthy, and the mature growths look fine, still have
their leaves and nicely green. Roots look good.

Anyone out there have any ideas? I'm suspecting that it might have gotten
too dry, and while watering saved the pseudobulb, the new leaves succumbed.
