Cattleyas - Too much light at night?
Default
I think there is some conflation of photoperiod (length of daylight), night light, and daytime light intensity. I adjust photoperiod from 11 hours during the winter to 14 hours in mid summer. I give them total darkness during the night and high light during the day. I think all these are key to maximizing blooming.
