Smile Lighting

This shelf is new, but I recieved my first Phal about 2 years ago. It bloomed several times before I moved and could not take it with me. I now have aquired mostly through gifts, a 3 oncidiums (intergeneric hybrids), 2 cattleya (again unknown), 1 phal.

I just wanted to make sure that they were getting the intensity of light needed for a long enough period of time because for most of the day they only get about 350 fc of light.


I have had two of the oncidiums re-flower in this area. My next biggest problem is hydration. All of the pseudobulbs tend to wrinkle. Does not appear to rotten roots, but afraid to overwater.


Thanks for the thoughts,

Jay
