| Hi there everyone, haven't been on here for ages. My husband has had motor neurone disease and finally succumbed on 9th February.
Just reading about lights, I have my phals, oncidiums, miltonias, paphs, on a cabinet about 6 inches in from the window, north facing, with net curains inside the glass, and heavier curtains to shut at night as I live in the Blue Mountains of New South Wales, Aust. These orchids were all bought in the last year so I am yet to find out how I go as per flowering goes. More sun will come in during the winter so things may have to be adjusted. I will keep you informed as to what happens, they are all growing well.
Also have put my cymbidiums in more light ready to get spikes, we have had an extremely wet summer, which has worried me quite a lot for my cymbs.

Reason: sounded like the curtains were only just bought.
