# I have this extremely dark built in bookcase that I've been cleaning…

I have this extremely dark built in bookcase that I've been cleaning off and trying to figure out what to do with. I decided it would be perfect for some of my little cactus. Obviously going to need plant lights. Any recommendations? I have the stick on under shelf ones but I'm afraid they won't be bright enough.

Think these would work?

I have these. They work great!

I have about 15 of these and my plants love them. Sometimes the plug they give you goes out but simply replacing that usually does the trick. I’ve have mine for over two years and have only needed to replace a few bars. The timer function is the best. There’s a 12 hour one that’s perfect. Hoya and succulents do really well under these.

I have some lights with clamps! Those might be helpful!

I have some of those two but I think there would stick out too far. It's in a really narrow hallway.

Ah gotcha. They are pretty bendy if that helps but I see how the under shelf lights would be nice!
