| You don't need to have the sphag against the plant at all, but it doesn't hurt. It is just there to hold a reservoir of moisture to make sure the humidity in the bag is 100%. Don't know about light, just started growing my Phals under fluorescents, but Phals need less light than Catts, so about 16" away for them is plenty of light.
