Default the plant room is coming down

One more look at it before it gets disbanded and moved Its starting to look pretty good to me and It wouldnt be right if I didnt have to move it..










imagine all that light firing up at 6 am every morning, sitting there with your coffee, catchin the news and all the sudden you are blinded I do it all for the plants!!!

Just think how fun it will be to be able to start from scratch with all the knowledge you now have.

Thats a good way to think of it. I have to get rid of my plant racks too. Kinda sad for me.

Good luck with the move! I hope you and your plants will prosper in your new home! Your plants look very healthy and I loved the blooms you posted on your other thread. Wow! I enjoy looking at orchids in or out of bloom and seeing all your orchids was really nice. You really have a great set up with the lights and racks.

Tindomul, sorry to hear that you need to give up your plant racks. Sometimes, surprisingly, when we need to change, we find things that work better. Here's hoping that will be the case for you!

aww - sad to know it will be dismantled, but I'm sure whatever you come up with in your new place will be great too!

Good luck with the move, you certainly have a lot of racks and plants to move out of there!

thanks you

Going from an old leaky building with window AC units my place stays about 78 and 39% humidity all the time. With NEW Central Air and Heat, It wont be so plant freindly indoors anymore for me I fear. So we see how things go and what kind of changes I will need to make for the plants to continue and enjoy my home.

Your plants look great RJ. I'm sure you'll think of clever adjustments to keep them happy. Does the nasty neighbor know your moving yet?

no he does not know a thing and I want it that way ...He thinks Im going to put up with him goat staring me down everytime he sees me I just smile and keep moving. Its jus I still want to smack his head on the concrete a few times.


since he likes to collect garbage so much Im going to get "happy jack" the salad bar trash collector to drop a load of veggies off in the bed of his truck on my way out

On moving day I think I'd be tempted to leave him a special gift...like a pile of fresh horse manure on his doorstep. Know anybody who has a horse???
