What is the best way to treat a bud?

I have two Cattleyas growing buds. One is a Cattleya intermedia. This plant has oriented its buds toward a north facing window and the buds are beginning to open. Will the buds develop color in such low light? Another Cattleya hybrid I have is an Otaara. I have this plant directly under bright flourescent light. The buds are showing their "ruffles" but are not opening yet. Would this plant be better placed in a lower light situation or left to develop in the higher light? Any thoughts on the matter will be grately appreciated.
