This "West Wall" gets the pitch-perfect amount of sun for six months. To supplement in the months when it counts (like, NOW), I have a chaotic assortment of lights, some of which belong in tents with fans. Please note that this all pretty much happened over six months.

    Wow 😮 do you keep them all in there whole year round? Also, your house terrarium (not sure if that's what is called lol), did you install the lights yourself? I bought one from Ikea supposedly for high humidity plants, but no grow lights. I'm still trying to figure out how I'm going to install one without the cord showing.

      Year round, yeah. I mean...this is my second summer with this set-up. Apartment living sux. Those are some panel lights from Amazon.

      I see how you put it, I checked mine this morning to see how I'm going to do it. You have yours just on top, right? I'll do the same. House is full of grow lights. By peak of Summer here, all windows with black out curtains will be closed. I told my family, the AC is for the plants, not for humans, lol. If not because of them, we'll have it off 🤣. Thanks!

      Mine's still empty, waiting for the right ones to get in there.

      Yep, just laid them on top and zip-tied a spot in case of earthquake lol. I own a bunch of panel lights, but these particular ones are a little wider - so they fit well.

    Very nice collection of plants. I’m also into succulents. You have many more cactus than I do. I stay away from the prickly ones. I do have several euphorbias, which look similar but soft spikes. Check mine out. It’s public.

      Phil, I checked your plants, they're beautiful with nice planters. Do you have them indoor as well? I have a growlight for my succies too, it's time for them to go inside. Some are still in the backyard with 30% mesh.

      Hey thanks. I have fun with my collection. Almost all my plants are indoors all year. A few outside. My regular landscape perennials I don’t list in the app.

    I just noticed your tall mother of millions. I have one but didn’t like the look, so a couple months ago I trimmed it down to the ground. This is what I have today. I like this look more. Kind of a mound now.

      Mine is really stringy! There are a ton of pups happening, tho. I put the base near some lights, and then I put the plant in a sunny area, etc. I'm just waiting to see what happens. ps The tallest one in there is a rogue Mother of Thousands.
