@antisocialplantclub: The usual advice about light for orchids is "bright indirect light, avoid direct sun" 📸: @Darryl Cheng - From this, we might try to decipher what is too little light and what is too much - unfortunately, the term "bright indirect light" would seem to convey that the sun should not shine directly on the plant - and this is corroborated by the "avoid direct sun" statement. - So the only conclusion is "any direct sun is too much" for this "bright indirect light" plant, which results in placing the plant farther from the window in an effort to avoid direct sun. - The truth is, when you're confined to a window, your phalaenopsis will do far better with 2 or 3 hours of direct sun as long as you're able to keep up with watering - just look how many blooms my orchid put out! - When you take "avoid direct sun" to mean avoid it entirely, sure it may seem easier to water since the moisture usage will be slower but your overall growth will also be slow (and blooms may never happen) - #houseplantjournal #orchids #phalaenopsis #orchidbloom #plantcare

Sun behind a window isn’t direct sun. Direct sun is outside the apprtment like a balcony or smth.

I think this depends where u live. Where i live direct sunlight spots mean at least 8 hours of incinerating sunlight

even a screen is a good filter for direct sunlight. the window serves as a screen or cover in a way because it blocks out certain wavelengths. which is exactly what you want. direct sunlight includes no filter (no screen no glass etc) and that would be all the wavelengths uva and uvb.
