Today the angle of the sun has finally reached the point to where direct light made it through the windows. This is the first ray of light since the beginning of November.

Light meter readings have skyrocketed to 4000-5000 lux/400-500 footcandles on the orchids and over 8000 lux/800 fc in the direct light.

I feel that I can safely say that the dark period is over! Bring on the growth, bring on the light!
