should i put that rack in the window? do you think my orchids aren't getting enough sun.
ive done more reading on this board than posting, and a recurring theme is "abundant light for blooming." on the contrary, apparently it's easy for the leaves to burn as well... any advice guys?
thanks again for the compliments, that rack was a hand me down from my pops (orchid guy too!)

Or crowd all of your blooming plants around it, like a guilt trip.
