Cattleya dowiana - finally found one

[piping plover]

My dowiana is growing a new lead just as outdoor growing conditions in RI are getting chilly. Here’s my winter time plan. Going to be an energy hog but I’m committed to keeping this dowiana healthy all winter so it can go into spring summer growing season strong. Sunny south window, with a grow light for 12 hours, set upon a humidity tray that is set upon a heat mat. I’ll monitor the night time temps at the window .
