That really seems low to me as I understand T5 bulbs. That computes as only 447 foot candles. I'm sure you are getting more than that (or at least I hope you are!) So something here isn't ringing true! Someone help me understand! I figure I need at least 2000 F.C. light

I don't do most Dendros or large, "floofy orchids". For me it's minis (like Angraecoides), Masdies, Paphs, and others that crept in somewhere along the line. See my orchid list for complete collection (usually not current.)
