So, here are the first two blooms.

This first one is TINY, maybe 1/32 of an inch.



and, this second one is more like 1/2 to 3/4 of an inch.



Thanks again for looking, everyone!

Amazing! I think more light may be necessary though!

Thank you Paul Mc and CambriaWhat!

The light I am using is producing almost 10,000 lumens. The specs are 104 lumens/watt. I have two of the light bars at 65 watts a piece.

Thumbs up
Thank you Tommy Miami!

I am a big fan of all of your very creative cylinders and orbs. I must resist following suit, as I have enough to take care of as it is...but, I love them!

sthh- HAHA! That's funny. My wife has moved the vacuum from the closet, to adjacent to the display. It sheds debris daily (mostly the preserved sheet moss)...so, being a smart man, I took the hint!

Hi again, everyone.

I thought I would post some update pics. I added a Repti-fogger (humidifier) to the display. I let it run for about an hour in the morning, and an hour in the evening. This is in addition to misting before I turn it on.

I also had another bloom. This is definitely the coolest looking bloom I've had yet.

Thanks for looking!
