Thanks!

I have two others that aren't faring so well but seem to be doing better with the cooler winter temps. I'm going to have to figure something out for them in the summer.

That was definitely my issue... cooked 'em. Just too warm here in summer without special treatment.

Thanks everyone! I have a lot of fragrant orchids in bloom right now. A 270 flower Onc sharry baby, a walkeriana, and Onc twinkle, and a couple others, but this is what is the overpowering fragrance when entering the grow room.

Clowestum White Magic, not as white as expected but I prefer this and the power of the fragrance is unmatched. Very herby/spicy/mentholy fragrance typical of catasetum.

Bulldog paph in first rebloom. Got it 2 years ago in bloom as a single plant, not at least 10 growths and two more flowers coming. Delenati also in bud (2!)

Made some room for a very significant paph/phrag expansion coming this week (Merry Christmas to me).

Oncidium section 50% in bloom.

Wow, this is insane!

What are those lights? Are they special LED lights? Or are they just shop lights?

Are you using the LED lights that home growers use to grow some special "herbs"?

Thanks! They are LED grow lights.

27 (I think) of these Amazon.com

and 2 of these Amazon.com

I'm sure I could use these last two to grow some nice herb but its legal here so I leave that to the pros. We have the best herb on earth here (I am highly qualified to make this claim lol)
