The bad.. - After I applied a cinnamon oil solution on an area of plants I caught these 3 villains running around. I gave them a stronger dose of the solution!!!



and the Good, Dockrilla lichenastrum bud opening

As a soil soak?

 

[NYEric]

As a spray solution. It outright dissolved one, but the other 3 I found sliming around later.

What length is that LED light fixture? Looks pretty interesting and the price is decent. BTW, where do you get those plastic bins your plants are sitting in under the new LED light?

Thanks!

 

[NYEric]

That's the 2 foot light, they sell 1, 2, and 4 foot units; they are connectable up to a certain draw limit. The bins are Sterilite 27 quart containers.
