Just sent this to Marni, so thought I'd share it here too.
I'm about a month in now, and am not seeing any negatives, but am hesitant to claim benefits - although it DOES look like there may be some growth spurts where there was none previously.
One thing I have noted - I have had two Cymbidium Nut plants - both supposed to be 'H&R' - one has always bloomed a nice red, the other more of an olive green with red undertones. Both have just opened their first blossoms this winter, and the red one is stronger red, and the other one is red with olive undertones.
I've been keeping track of temperatures, and the greenhouse has been consistently 62°-63° at night, climbing in the sunshine, so I cannot claim they developed cooler, which would be my first thought. Who knows? Maybe we're onto something.
