# A lil before and after! Super clean look hiding all of those wires.…

A lil before and after! Super clean look hiding all of those wires. Now the eye can focus on the beauty and not the messy cords. A tiny bit of electrical tape (maybe a whole roll) did the trick!

This shelf is in my bedroom next to my bed… is 530am too early for timers? lol!! I just get so excited to check on my babies in the morning while drinking my coffee.

Great job! I love it…. I am the same way, if you look under my shelves, you’re gonna see tape and more tape. 😂

No 5:30am isn't to early. I think you can wake them up anytime you want but be sure to let them sleep for 12 hours

Great wire management! The day starts off well knowing you’ve already checked on the plants at the crack of dawn. Most of my plants are outside. I’m outside early before it’s too hot. Luckily, my neighbors are plant people who fuss with plants early. One neighbor is raising city chickens 🐓. So, it’s hard to sleep in when they start clucking. 🤣

Mine are all set for 12 hours now (I think it was Sunny who told me to a while back), but they do come on at different times. Kitchen at 5AM so I don’t need a light in there, bedroom 7AM just in case I want to sleep in, and the rest of the house 6AM. Unreal how much thought and time we invest in these guys, lol.
