Mine is under (8) 40 watt flourescent tubes, in 100% humidity. Current temps 80+F days, 70F nights. I mist frequently and keep the well filled with water. Basic bromelliad care works fine, if you are growing other species. Mine is a yearling, and growing well under these conditions.

Hi!

I know a couple of people growing this plant. Everyone of them has it on a windowsill and ignores it (beside of watering). They grow nice, get many plantlets and flower. Why growing them in 100% humidity anyway?

Good growing!
