Rare Masdevallia Awarded

Hi Tindo,

Cold and rainy is good, but I'm sick of cold and rainy.

As to artificial lighting I use a 4 four 8 tube fixture with T5 HO bulbs. I only have four bulbs on at a time, however, since the plants get too much light with all of them on. The plants are stage anywhere from a few inches to about 24 inches away from the lights. You can see some pictures of my set-up on my blog.

I saw the pics. Very nice stuff. Thats a nice bit of light. Very jealous!!! I wish I had the space to build me something like that.

Tahnks, Tindo. It doesn't take up that much space and is portable enough that it can be moved and attractive enough to go in some living spaces.

What a great idea!!!
