Brassavola nodosa dropped all of its buds

[SouthPark]

I don't grow nodosa ------ and haven't grown with artificial lights before. So that's awesome how you grow with LEDs.

Assuming the heat pad is working just fine, and temperatures change gradually and smoothly, or just kept relatively constant ------ then maybe could turn attention to the temperature of leaves and/or buds due to the LED.

Do the LED lights do a 'soft start' and a 'soft stop'?

I was thinking that it would probably be nice to have a system that slowly and gradually ramps the light level up (or down) ------- to slow down the temperature changes in leaves/buds etc.
