Keeping track of cultural needs
Unlike many orchidists, I am not blessed with a perfect memory for the exact cultural needs of each of my plants.
I am looking for some kind of system that will help me group my plants according to the major cultural needs. Anyone have a SIMPLE (!) system for this? I was thinking of maybe making colored tags of some kind, though that could be become unwieldy.
Here's the variables:
Cold
Intermediate
Bright Light
Medium Light
Shade
Dry Rest
Consistent Moisture throughout year

All of my plants are drier in winter since the days are short, but some get water every 10-14 days while some (Cymbidiums for instance) currently get water once/month.
Anything people have done to categorize their plants across multiple conditions like this, please share what works for you! Thanks
