Default Night temps.

I have Phals, Oncs and zygos that I keep at the same temp at night. My question has to do with grower Phals, budding ones and bloomers. In the open concept room I keep them on the east and the furthest away from the heal source. I have budding phals in the middle of the dining area. the growers and bloomers are cooler near a window that I sometimes close the blinds just to keep the furnace from running all night.

I know to leave the growers cooler, but wondering if I should switch out the budding and blooming phals. None of my other orchids are anywhere near to budding, so I am leaving them cooler also.

Anyone have a suggestion of the temp needs at night for the different phals?

I keep all of those at the same temperature, blooming or not. The drop in night temp is enough to start the bloom cycle and many of my phals just keep blooming. It's generally 65-75f and maybe slightly less right next to a window. Early, you might be overthinking. 😉
