hello everyone

[jojo]

Hi
I have been a hobbyist grower for about 12 years now.I have approx. 125 plants and grow them in a year round sun room.
I just installed two 250 hps lights to use in the winters here-Northern Illinois.We have long cold sunless winter days!
I just moved the cattlyeas outside onto my deck for the summer;I think that we are finnally out of danger for cold weather!

Hi and welcome! I sure hope we don't get any more cold days now that the temps are getting higher. It seems like it was running behind this year. Do you have any pictures?
