UNDER LIGHTS
I raise many of my orchids under lights in winter. Here we see part of a bank of eight x 4' wide spectrum tubes that are used to illuminate the larger plants. On either side are light stands under which I grow more compact specimens.. From October through to March, day ength is adjusted to 12 hours, while at other times of the year it is set at 16 hours. Plants stay beneath the lights from about October until the end of May.
