| kmarch- It is unseasonably warm here, but I have a really good heating/cooling system and I can make it whatever temperature I need. I try to keep a medium temperature to accomodate the wide variety of orchids I have. I have had absolutely no trouble flowering phals, I actually have 3 in bloom and one in spike. My lighting system puts out 29,000 lumens at 400 watts, and I get around 1500 foot candles at 24 inches away. My top shelf is significantly brighter, but is completely filled. I have had great success with oncidium alliance, phals, and epidendrums. |
