an updated photo on these to follow.
I repotted a couple of months ago into a seedling mix and they seem to like it.
Temps reached 85f max and about 73f min.
Humidity varies, but at least 50%
They receive afternoon sun, dappled....

...and yep, this is PART of one compot...I have a couple of other seedlings, much smaller.

Coming along nicely. I also moved a few into another micro-climate.

I repotted today ( past due ). Roots were OK - just a tip if you ever try growing seedlings - don't use packing peanuts at the base of the pot. The milt roots went right through them and I had to cut the peanuts/roots off.

I took the opportunity to straighten them up in the pot/s. There are new growths starting everywhere - see photo.
I changed them into a medium bark mix with more sphag - say 60/40 mix. ( as an experiment, hope they do OK )

Ambient temps are about 63 - 68f. Still on a heat mat - so those temps may be higher for seedlings.
Humidity varies - above 50% to 62%
Lights on 11 hours per day. They do get a bit of natural light too.
Water now 2x per week.
Fertilise 1/4 dosage every 2nd-3rd watering
Smaller ones don't ever seem to catch up to the larger siblings.

All look so healthy. How do you keep them from getting spots? Do you use Physan or similar on a regular basis?
