Default phostrogen diluted for orchids

Despite reading all sorts of complicated stuff on keeping orchids, ours
bought from morrisons supermarkets seem to do really well standing in our
living room just inside a south facing window and they flower repeatedly.

we stand the pots in a bowl of tepid water for twenty minutes every two
weeks.

One thing we are not sure about is exactly how to feed them. We have some
phostrogen plant food and wondered to what strength we should dilute it when
we stand the orchids in it to water them? Thanks for any advice.
