The reason I tried to enclose the box was that it was in the basement outside my woodshop and I wanted to keep the dust out of the box. However, that did not work and the plants kept dropping the blooms, so we moved the box upstairs into a spare bedroom. That has solved the bud drop problem. During the winter our house is dry so the doors serve to keep the humidity levels from the wet stones inside the grow box.
I will look for broad spectrum tubes. I would guess that those are a specialty type tube and not available in places like Home Depot, correct?
I was planning on remaking it someday to make one section with more space. However, that would put the lights up higher from the plant. Is it just better to let the spikes grow along the underside of the light instead of raising the lights? |
