The start of my indoor biochar trial is just one week away. So, I spent time this weekend making some final updates to my grow room in preparation for the trial.
One of my biggest challenges has been finding enough shelf space under lights to accommodate the 48 plants that will be grown in the trial, while still having enough room for plants that I’m overwintering and other seeds that I’m starting. So, to meet these needs, I built two new light fixtures that will utilize the four 85 watt CFLs that I purchased a few months ago for $10 each.
