    Doesn't sound too bad to me. If you can keep the temp mostly between 55 and 85 with at least some temperature drop at night relative to day, and humidity around 60% or above, you're doing better than most hobby growers do for Miltoniopsis. Being too warm is much worse than being a bit cooler than the optimal daytime range.

    Thanks for the encouragement. We shall see what happens in the next 12 months. The temperature does drop at night, so keep your fingers crossed!

    Thanks! Hope it blooms!
