Growing under lights

[Bob 10001]

Everyone has different ways they have solved the issues with growing under lights. Here's my solution:

The exterior pic shows a 6' x 6' hobby greenhouse in my basement. I raised it 18" to give some headroom. In the foreground is a humidifier made from a 5 disc terrarium fogger, and controlled by a humidistat.

The interior pic shows 2x 4 foot 8 tube T5 HO fixtures. They fit in place of the roof panels nicely. The interior is lined with reflective mylar. I still have plenty of room.

If I were doing it over, I would use Cree LED bulbs from HD. You can't beat the cost per lumen.
