Amount of sun for my orchids
I haveCymbidiums currently flowering and 3 catts. I also have one oncidum. I consulted the american orchid socities culture sheets which conflict with other sites as to the amount of sun.
My orchids currently reside in a bank of southern windows. The tricky part is the direction of the sun. There are a lot of trees so the direct sun is at the floor and the higher up the window bank there is progressively less sun- its bright but not direct.
I live in western Michigan so the sun is weaker than in the south.
Given this information many culture sheets say that the cymbidums need full sun, as does the oncidum. However, other sites say bright light but no direct sun. For the Catt's, the advice varies widely.
I have no idea how much direct sun to give any of these orchids.
Please help!!!
Thank You
