Warm it up!

Cold and moist roots are a misery for the plant, and with 18C and very low humidity, the evaporative cooling will lower the temperature a bit more.

Phalaenopsis are truly "hot" growers, rarely seeing below about 22-23C, and loving it when it's 37C and above (with deep shade).

Well, the good thing is that summer (spring) has started and it's getting warmer now. In fact yesterday, was super hot 31C...biw it's around 23-24C.
