LOL that's so funny! The reflection of the glass 😂 Thank you!!

Your all white looks good with the shades of green plants. I would ask if all of your electricity for such high usage (omg) is from solar or wind rather than dirty fuel which is devastating the environment. Do the more narrow boxes fit good sized books?

Such a joy to watch your setup Melissa. Your an inspiration to use plant lovers, keep up the good work and more great contents to come.

Your plant room is goals for sure, gorgeous and so well thought out. I agree about the Sansi bulbs to heavy and too hot. I'm really liking the GE full spec bulbs. Those wire management boxes are a must have. I found some on Amazon with bamboo lids. I wish my 🐈 wasn't a chewer so I could have large floor plants *pout.

You're probably not using Sansi any longer, but just in case, those bulbs must not be housed inside a lamp shade or cover of any type; they require a socket-only type of open application for adequate ventilation against over-heating.

Hello Melissa, That set-up is dreamy ! Sorry for asking WAYYYY too late... How far are your vertical lights from the plants, please ? I put mine at like 40 cms from the plants and I'm having a LOT of algae, which I think is problematic and basically due, I think, to too much light. What do you think ? How far away are your vertical lights from the plants ? Hoping you'll have time to answer... Thanks in advance :)

I have a hunny well fan, it runs for 15 minutes every 2 hours, after 5pm my fan turns off for the day , my fan turns back on at 9am , my fan is on a timer, timer is set to activate every day at the same times and deactivates at the same time each day. I run all my grow lights for 12 hours each day on timers, during the summer some of my grow lights are not in use because the location of those plants gets good sunlight from the windows they are next too, in the winter all my grow lights are used because they don’t get enough light in the winter.

I love all your videos. Thank you ❤ Can you please provide the link for the 3m hooks that you used to put your plants on the wall?

I highly recommend the Kasa smart plug power strip

I wish I had seen this video last month. I bought the Sansi grow lights, both a clip on (with 4 bulbs!) and the stand one with 4 bulbs, they are VERY heavy bulbs! And their own clip on light base is too weak to hold up those 4 bulbs. Plus the stand base is ALSO too weak to hold 4 bulbs! It is very wobbly. I have a cheap stand grow light from amazon that has a sturdier base on it at a fraction of the price! I want to send these sansi lights back. I am so sorry I bought these.

Can you video your next trip to tj max?

I need grow lights in my living room ceiling and I hung a T8 and they are so bright on the eyes. I’m wondering if the barrina hanging lamps would be easier on the eyes but give my plants enough light. I need them for the area like your window where you have hanging plants and the plants on the sofa table. Do you think this would work? Thanks

I love your setup very much! So clean organized and beautiful. I have a question what is better, let the lights on during the day? or during the night.

4:00 Nice standing grow lights to give them light from both sides if grown in front of a window. RIP the neighbour's eyes though. P.S. : Isn't humidity above 50% all day a mold risk indoors? I want happy plants but not molds on my walls and textiles.

Melissa, I have a question regarding the ikea cabinet. Do you have any recommendations on how to regulate temperature? Mine is in a separate room that gets quite cold in winter (below 60F) and I would like to put something in it to rise the temperature.

@plantsbymelissa

Жыл бұрын

I'm not too sure on how to make it warmer. Maybe a heating mat for seedlings to keep in there? My lights make it pretty warm inside but my room is also very warm so that helps it I'm sure. Sorry I don't have much info on that! I haven't had that issue before :)

Couldn’t you plug a power strip into a wall timer instead of getting a wall timer with a bunch of plugs?

Where did you get that square fan in your greenhouse tho 😭

Hi, there's no way to know that for sure :) Humidity will help them and keeping them from drafty areas but plants will go dormant sometimes even in good growing conditions.

I’m curious, why do you a fan running 24/7 instead of just opening those huge windows? Also, would you recommend the Haus light? I need to invest in one but want to get one that actually works, preferably off of Amazon

@plantsbymelissa

Жыл бұрын

I'm not a fan of having the windows open in my plant room - too much of a chance for pests to come in and invade my space. After having thrips for 2 months I can't do that again lol. Thrips have loved my outdoor plants this summer too - they must be more prevalent in this area. What do you mean by actually works? I've had it for about 5-6 months over my moss pole area and I think it's done well for me. Plant growth takes time - light and fertilizer helps of course but some plant species just grow slower no matter what. So depending on the plants you have that makes a difference! I think most people don't release how close lights really need to be as well. 4-5 feet from a plant is almost low light if you measure with a light meter. The closer you bring it the better it's going to do for you :)
