I live in Michigan so winter dormancy will have to take place in my garage over the winter. The problem is they will get ZERO sunlight, its just the way my garage and windows are positioned. So I have use artificial lights.
So im stuck using these 3 desk lamps (Mainstays from Walmart) and each lamp has a Phillips 6500K 1600 lumen CFL from Home Depot. I also will have them on a Smart Electrician 7-Day Astronomical timer. I have the bulbs (not the housing) 2 inches from the plants.
This is my setup, its in my sons room but i moved them out to the garage already:
Im just little less than impressed. I think i need to take it to the next level. So i was thinking about buying this:
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00XC ... EMWWZ95494
Is it worth it? If it is then how far from the plants should it be?
