RJSqurirrel,
Thank you very much for taking the time to respond to my dilemma. Yes, it is becoming all consuming. I am trying to get my husband to go for a little full wooden house (green house) which I can air condition/heat/humidify and properly light...for my orchids...Darn...he's not going for it! Plan B is to turn the guest room into the orchid room...Ole Mom nature is a bit too tough at the moment as it is 114 degrees out side. No chance right now...for any thing out side...and that's the reason hubby said no to my little green Palace...It would only be utilized in the summer here...during spring, winter and fall, I think I'll have the right window sill set up...it is just the darn three digits for 5 months I have to deal with. Perhaps I should ship them back to the mother-in-law for the summer?? All teasing. Thank you for your advise...It all is very helpful.
I just am thoroughly frustrated...2 months to go...Hope the "Chids" can hand in there.

Thanks, that is great advice. I am going to try to get my hubbie to let me turn the guest room into the Orchid room. (perhaps I can use some of your suggestions). I gave him another alternative...of a cute little wooden house in our back yard, which I would turn into a green house..that I could air condition, humidify, heat and light....to keep the "Chids" happy!? That went over like a lead balloon...as I really would just utilize all those conditions (minus the heat) for what 5 months...just while it is in the 114/117 degree range. The rest of the time I think my "window sill" is going to work...and I'll be able to have them out side for a bit of time. I dunno! Just a bit frustrated...hoping they make the next several months...Then I'll have a reprieve to really figure something out for the 2014 summer.
Thank you so much for your input..I greatly appreciate it.
