Hello! I want to grow Disa orchids indoors under lights but I am having difficulties coming up with a good way to do so. To my understanding, these orchids need 70-85 degrees in the summer and a 10-15 degree temperature drop at night while in the winter they need to get very cool, down to 40/50 degrees, to grow properly. Are these low temperatures in the winter necessary? I would grow them outside but my climate gets to about 20 degrees in the winter which would kill them. Does anyone have a clever way of providing these temperatures indoors without a fridge or some other expensive way? I would love to grow these beauties
