Default Flowering Question

I live in New Jersey and keep it on the window sill and it gets about 5 or 6
hours a day we have central air condition and it is cool in the house it is
in orchid soil which doesn't look like soil but it is orchid soil as per the
packaging we use orchid food according to packaging again it looks very
healthy but no flowers.
Thanks Again

Okay, this is a Phalaenopsis (can tell by the name). Please tell us your
growing conditions: where you are, where the plant is, what the temps are,
etc. Then we can help, and will be glad to do so.

Just as general information, however, Phalaenopsis do not like very sunny
locations, and it is quite normal for them to lose old leaves as the new
ones grow.
