I give em about 69-73 percent humidity all day & night.
I live an an apartment, and the problem with putting them in a window
is the 2 large west windows that I have only get light from 3 PM-8 PM.
Would that be enough to suppliment?

As long as the light is not still HOT. The sun at 3 should be
great light. It should I am guessing be far enough off the
noon heat to be just good strong light. When you move them to
more light remember they can sunburn just like you and me. Move
them slowly so they can adjust to the extra light.

Good luck and good growing.
