-
Temperature: Cool grower. Daytime 59-72°F (15-22°C), nighttime 50-59°F (10-15°C). Maintain a 10-15°F day-night differential to encourage continuous blooming.
-
Humidity: 70-85% with excellent air circulation. Use humidity trays, humidifiers, or terrarium environments to maintain moisture while preventing fungal issues.
