Try watering them with 20C water at sunset around spike initiation time. That should provide a reasonable temperature drop. They need constant air movement if it is very humid, otherwise they'll suffer from heat stress and rot. They'd love a fan. Keep the leaves of your new growths dry, fertilise and with any luck you might have some flowers in 3 years! Otherwise keep them as pot plants and one day they might reward you
