So far its going well, although I've had to start switching off the grow lights at 6pm as its getting darker much sooner now that winter is on its way.
I think my neighbors might be getting a bit suspicious of the purple glow coming from my windows at night even with the curtains drawn so I thought it was best to be safe then risk my door being kicked in by the feds at 2 in the morning just for some tropical plants. I'm also right next to a council estate as well so I don't really want to create any unwanted attention, I am however planing on moving my grow station to another room to where I can cover the windows at night with some black paper or something to stop the glow, that way I can have the grow lamps on 24/7 over the winter time. My Orange trees have improved since I've had them under the grow lamps also my small banana plants are really shooting up now and my bamboo has really taken off. I have other plants but those I haven't yet put under the grow lamps, I have those ones in my kitchen right next to a south facing window where they get natural sunlight.
