Seed starting indoors with lights! Tips!
It seems to me everyone seems to miss a important fact that light is absorbed by leaves all over! Placing you plants on a mirror or even alum foil and the reflected light will be alsorbed much more by the plants! Make a mirror box with the plants inside and the light at the top. The box also gives the plants more moisture and heat besides the reflected light! Harden them off later with a fan. and drop in temp!

I have decided to put a set or two 4 foot lights in my basement.. My solar greenhouse is 50 miles away from my place since I have it at my girl friends. I only get there on the weekend!I am going to start some plants in the basement this year. The temp is 60 all the time! I will try the bright surface below the plants also probably the mirrors. I am going to start some things next week!
