## Inside a more controlled environment
I've been wanting to try hydroponics for so many years now, it's kind of surreal trying it now that I've been watching Youtube videos for years. I'll be growing many more plants indoors now that I have new LED lights.

These are a fixture and light bulb combo with everything you need including switches and wires to connect the lights to each other. I'll only be using 3 lights, the other 3 are going to @DanielCruzing for his indoor microgreens set up. I'm still looking for a more full spectrum light for flowering.

There is one light on the top rack for sprouts and small plants then 2 LED lights on the rack below reaching the plants on the ground. When the plants get taller and closer to the light, I can take them off of the table and on to the floor.

The plant that was transplanted first is fruiting fast, but I think I fucked up by cutting the top of the stem while it was wilted from transplanting. I only cut it because I thought there was too much plant for the newly transplanted roots to support. I'm not sure if this plant will even grow taller now but at least its pumping all energy into the fruit.

This is the first humidity and temp reading, we will see if these lights and plants generate more heat. The room is 6x6 and about 8 feet tall. It's a laundry room but I have no laundry machines or dish washer. My water bill has never been over $15 a month while my other houses were usually over $100 a month.
Thanks for looking.
