Dendrobium findlayanum - what to do??

[blackvine]

Hi, all - I got this Den. findlayanum about a year ago, not knowing it needed winter dormancy. Last winter, I did not let it go dormant so, of course, it did not bloom this year. This year, I've talked to a few folks and they seem to agree with the AOS:

"Culture Growth period in summer; give warmth, water and fertilize heavily from when roots appear until top leaf appears on canes. Then give high light, little or no water, no fertilizer, cool nights (40 to 50 F). In other words, forget about them."

I do have a place that can give it the right temps, but it needs high light during dormancy, as far as I can tell. Well . . . how about a south facing basement block-type window where it would probably get Phal-type light (maybe less), because of the blocks? That place would give it the right temps, but I'm not sure about light. What do you think?
