That orchid is gorgeous! My old supervisor kept his orchids at work on top of his cabinets; they got plenty of light and out of the way while they were not blooming. He took them home when they were blooming and put them on his kitchen table to enjoy. With my cubicle being on the backside of his cubicle, I was the only one that got to enjoy the months of blah-ness that an orchid is when not in bloom.

Rockler is a dangerous site. I have a number of plans I bought off that site - a couple for sheds we were going to build 2 houses ago, lol.

I read about a Sourdough Boule: she recommends lift-stretch and turn
7 times. Other procedure the same. She does put it in the refrigerator
overnight. A VERY LONG PROCEDURE....it is the HIGHEST BOULE I have
ever seen. May try it????? maybe???? Aria

I watched a video where the different stretches are used. The one that had the highest lift was the lift and fold but it was not too much more lift.

You can try adding more stretch and folds to the champlain recipe. Try 4 or 5.

Adding more time, putting in the fridge will likely not change the lift since once the gluten fibers form form overnight, no more will form

The shaping technique is very important too.

like this one:

Notice what the dough looks like too and aim for that type of hydration
