I actually began this an experiment with low watt LED lamps and bulbs, plus a simple soil setup with leca and perlite.
So first, I used a 12W bulb for a few days..
That bulb got overheated or something, would never turn on again, so I switched to a 15W bulb which was even slightly smaller..
That didn't give quite enough light as I know it. So i bought a 90W UFO to couple with that 15W bulb (they cover slightly different frequencies anyway)..
I try to keep the humidity between 40%-70%, the temperature is constantly between 21-24C, I adjust the PH value of the water with lemon juice to ~6.5 and have a fan on a timer on a 18/6 cycle along with the lights. The fan only runs every half, on every hour, during that cycle. I stress them off completely during night. No light and no wind for 6 hours.
Wow, it may be sunny tomorrow?! ..This is the status of the plants anyway..
Any suggestions or feedback to the setup or the plant(s) would be greatly appreciated.
