It's in full sun at least half the day if not more, but seems quite happy there... been there two weeks including this last week of really really hot sunny weather. It's showing no sign of sun damage and is growing like crazy.

The Cym can take full sun all day long with no problem if you get it used to it. In fact, that's what mine needed to finally bloom, and Lyon is much lower down than the UK! Sun 1/2 the day just wasn't enough the previous years. Mine stayed out until temps hit freezing at night, which was late november last year.
I miss all my orchids, this summer they have to stay cooped up in the apartment with my mom instead of enjoying the summer at the countryhouse with me. Not having orchids over here is tough!
Btw, I don't think I ever saw your completed GH. I assume you posted some photos on OB, but since I didn't log on for over 2 months I missed them.
