I usually take my Phrags outside for the summer when nighttime temperatures are staying above 10C. They go to a spot on the north side of house where they get direct morning sun for 3-4 hours, then bright shade. Daytime highs can be 15-35C. I give them a lot of water when they're outside. Drenching them with rainwater in the morning, then again with tap water from the garden hose in the late afternoon. They really love their summer holiday. This year they're house bound because of some construction we're doing. I think the fresh air, more water, and diurnal temperature fluctuations help them flower. Having said that though, four of them are currently flowering despite staying inside this year......

I see that you have the same temperature conditions as here in Belgium. Since your last message one of my Phrag schroederea is already outside. Actually we have 25°C .
 
You forgot to take off the dead leaves!!! I know this post is old!!! But This phrag looks like kovachii x caudatum, is your phrag posted here consistent in blooming with all the other same crosses?
