Great advice! Indeed, that’s what I will do!
I have a timer WITH A BATTERY! (can’t believe they sell them without batteries!)

How does my distance (attached) look?

I thought it may be getting too much, but we’ll try it!
Thank you! 🙏
Here is the setup that I arrived at... it did start with one orchid... that didn't last long. This was the spare bedroom of the condo that I lived in at the time.

You mentioned peroxide in your video (by the way, looks like a great repotting job!) Don't use it on roots - it can damage the tiny hairs on the growing tips of roots. If things are nasty when I go to repot, I just wash off the crud with flowing water. The plants seem to heal up just fine once they are in a more airy environment, without any further treatment. Physan is pretty benign if you do want to go after stuff on the surface (it's not systemic) but a good growing environment is likely to be all that you need. The roots on your plant appear to be in quite good condition.
