    I have been growing Paphs., Phrags. & Other plants in a south facing window with great success, but I always felt more light couldn't hurt so I installed a 14" skytube skylight six weeks ago and have noticed remarkable growth in all plants since. The tube was easy to install and for around 200 dollars, a worthy investment.

    Excellent. Natural light does wonders for the feeling of an indoor space and I'm not surprised the orchids are benefiting from it as well.
