This topic is of great interest to me, because although I am retired so can be here most of the time to manage my two orchid houses, next year I have to be away for 5 weeks July/August. I am really challenging my mind about watering. My intermediate house is kept shut year round, but my cool house full of Odonts & Cymbidiums is left open from end March till early October.
I can rig up an overhead sprinkler system in each, on a timer, but am most worried about water in the leaf axils in the intermediate house - Paphs, Phrags, Phals, etc.
Any input welcome - I am in England.
