Thanks. The temp drop can be as much as 75 to 55 during the winter.

Yes there is one Brassavola there. But I have since added a 40W horticultural pendant LED that triples the amount of light in the lower half of the case. 95W LED total.

I recognize that a generalist case may be difficult to accomplish. Nevertheless right now all the plants inside are doing well. I water once daily with a mister. Three of my plants are currently flowering, however the flowering process has been slow and, I may be wrong, but one seems to have spiked but is hesitant to actually bloom.
