Creating a new setup
Default Creating a new setup

Hey guys,
I'm relatively new to the world of orchid culture but have experience growing several other things. Yesterday, I went to an orchid show and bought 3 orchids, planning on growing them inside year round under grow lights but I'm running into some problems with finding out what lights will be sufficient for them. I have a Psychopsis papilio alba, a Phragmipedium Olaf Gruss, and a Maxillaria tenuiforia.
Would a 5500k 60 watt CFL in a clamp reflector lamp work? Would I need multiple bulbs? I've looked around and haven't been able to find a clear answer.

Thanks
