I assembled my IKEA Rudsta cabinet over the weekend and just added some plant babies 💚 I’m so excited to see how my plants take to the greenhouse life! Going to be a fun experiment — and an excuse to buy more plants :)

📸 Photo description: “A greenhouse cabinet semi full of plants! This is a black IKEA Rudsta glass cabinet. I added weather stripping, fans, grow lights, a hygrometer and a humidifier. This cabinet is currently home to 3 carnivorous pitcher plants, a begonia rex ‘kotobuki’, a variegated philodendron domesticum, a philodendron pink princess, a philodendron Florida ghost, a single leaf Hoya kerrii, an alocasia frydek, creeping fig, a variegated string of hearts and a pilea baby tears.”

Really, you nailed that set up, I love the pos of color against that black back. How many lights did you end up going with?

6 barrina t5 grow lights! Two at the top of both levels and two extra on the back wall on the lower level. (I have a fan on both levels since my shelves are glass)
