I've been finding that daily temperature differentials are almost as important in good paph growing as light and water.
I'm sure there are exceptions but in general, it seems a 10 degree difference between day and night provide better growth than a constant temperature for most paphs. For example, the recommended avg temps for sanderianums is around 27-29C, but you won't have good growth by having little temp variations between this average. Contrary, night temps of 20C and day temps of 32C would be better.
It's not something I hear people giving advice on. Usually you just see the average temp recommendations.
Do others share the same experience?
