I bought this mini greenhouse from walmart and set up some shop lights (6500k, 1100 lumens) as the main light source. I live in an apartment so I didn't have the space indoors but fortunately did outside on my patio. My patio, however, gets very little to almost no direct sunlight so it gets pretty cold.
As you can see, I've been attempting to start some seeds with a little progress (it's only been a couple weeks). I used to keep the greenhouse zipped up at night to protect from the cold, and unzipped during the day. However, I still got some mold, hence the cinnamon sprinkled all over.
I know it's only been a couple weeks (I think 3rd or 4th week rn?) so I don't expect MUCH growth. Is there any way I can improve my setup, though? I'm in zone 9b! I'd love to hear any comments đ

I realize this isn’t entirely an indoor garden, but I’ve seen some pretty similar setups to mine so any help is still appreciated!!
Love it! Just get those lights right up on your seedlings. Iâm talking within an inch of the tops, itâll keep your seedlings from getting leggy (stretching towards light= weak plants).
