πŸͺ΄ My plant setup (these are the majority of my plants) πŸͺ΄ The rest of my grow lights are in storage someplace. The window is North facing and it’s a cloudy day. I hope my #FiddleLeafFig is gonna get enough light there. It’s typically pretty bright during the day when the clouds 🌧️ aren’t threatening β˜”οΈ #PlantsMakePeopleHappy #HeartleafPhilodendron #CebuBluePothos #Philodendron #GoldenPothos #NeonPothos #ManjulaPothos #MarbleQueenPothos #AloeVera #HoyaPubicalyx #MoneyTree #Dracaena
Cute! What was the price tag for the shelving and lights? I’d love to have a similar setup someday once I have more plants.
@TheDaffyQuill I bought these years ago off Amazon but I’ve been looking at getting another one and found this interesting. It’s $45.99. I’m just waiting on getting more plants before getting it. https://amzn.to/4kEl6R5
How long do you keep the grow lights on? I’m a newbie here.
@BuffCaperspurge I’m on Amazon now looking
@ElectricBonsi83 I keep them on for 12 hours. These lights have a 3,9, or 12 hour timer.
@Staceala my house doesn’t get get light, should I invest in some?
@TheDaffyQuill you can find similar items on Amazon for pretty inexpensive! Like under $50
π‘ͺ𝒖𝒕𝒆!
@Staceala try Temu .. cheaper than amazon
I love that set up!
I bought the same stand. I do not recommend it. The spaces between flat wood is easy to have small pot fall through. It is not real sturdy and comes apart easily. I prefer a metal stand.
@ReassuringRye67 thanks 😊
@GoodRose53 yeah. The slats are spaced bad for small plants πŸͺ΄ but when I have a small pot I make sure it’s in a clear pot dish underneath if It’s cane get it to balance on the slats. I’ve also put a small peice of pressboard on the shelf in the past
@BuffCaperspurge do the plant grow lights use a lot of electricity?
@user4706 The lights I use are LED and they don’t use much. When Injad my clip-on lights that used real glow light bulbs πŸ’‘ I never really noticed much of a difference in my electric bill.
This is awesome, jealous! And just to everyone out there remember before you buy something, was you life really that inconvenient without it? And is it a want or a need? Might sound like the crazy environment lady but consume less! β™‘β™‘β™‘
