@IiGgOoRrish

I dont know if house lamps would be adequate, mostly people use what are called Grow-Lights which have the required strength and spectrum of light needed for plant growth. You have to research this in your local nursery.

@sooneaty I've red somewhere that phalaenopsis can grow in low light conditions, without direct sunlight, so i'll try to grow them here, and i will write to you again, to tell you what is happening with my orchids :D The main thing here is that i have a green house, where in summer i keep my orchids, and they're doing great! but now here is winter and the greenhouse is cold. That's why i choose this place, to keep them. In summer they'll be back to the greenhouse :) Reply...

Great video! I felt in love with orchids and i have few phalaenopsis in my kitchen. But soon i'll buy some new phalaenopsis and i wonna put them on my cupboard in my living-room, because on my window there is no place to put them! can i put them there because it has a normal light throw the day, and a bit dark, when the night arrives. The temperature is good and the humidity too. The cupboard is next to the window, and there's a bit light because of the window. can i put them? answer please..
