Almost doubled my space and light with this new apartment my wife and I moved to and the plants are loving it (just parts of the collection)!

Love that tall standup case! Where did you get it? Been looking for something like that but most I've found are like.....plastic type covers over a shelf not glass

#### David svarade den 2025-11-21

Hi! It is an Ikea cabinet ☺️ There are a few types rudusta, milsbo etc lol can’t remember exactly what this one is but got off facebook marketplace for $100!

Is that that dumbbell there to hold up the monstera 🤣

#### David svarade den 2025-11-21

Haha it sure is! Definitely need to repot it soon since it’s so top heavy

### JuicyCactussy kommenterade den 2025-11-21

The shelf is my inspiration, and the cabinet. I love how they go with the space

#### David svarade den 2025-11-22

Thank you so much 😊

Gorgeous monsteras. What grow lights do you use? Mine need an extra boost here in Chicago there is not enough ☀️!!

#### David svarade den 2025-11-22

No kidding! I’m in Chicago as well 😆 I use a mix of different lights such as Barrina, SANSI, and Soltech. I only have one Soltech light (the one above the giant monstera) because they can be expensive but i’ve found SANSI and Barrina to be great affordable options 😊

So funny! Thank you!
