Most winter days get 60f to 70f or 20c to 25c so can give them some outdoor time to help them along.
There is a time from about 5am to 8am where it get to its coldest. Mostly 50f to 55f or 10c to 15c in this time mentioned.
Need to get them outside, hot to get the fertiliser into them.

So what would happen if I put the CREE LED 240v 22w T8 Light tube fluorescent 120cm COOL WARM WHITE?
Tube 15 cm or 6 inch away from the seedlings?
Tube 10 cm or 4 inch away from the seedlings?
Very interesting!

Not an orchid, but I over wintered a Cephalotus about 5-7 cm from a Cree screw in with a single 9W emitter. Cephalotus tolerate full sun, and show better color under it, but they grow better with some shading. The plant grew nicely, and developed really nice coloration. I doubt that your plants could be hurt by your lights, given proper acclimation, unless they actually touch the unit.
