I closed in a 20'x 8' porch for a greenhouse on the southern side of my house two years ago. It must have been winter, because there was lots of light at the time. Now, I find that the oak trees around the house shade most of the windows, and the wooden porch roof does too. Sooooo, I'm going to get lights in there and attach to the ceiling. Would big florescent lights work? The skinny lights I got with a grow kit hardly put out any width of light at all. They don't even cover one tray of seedlings. But, they can be moved close to the plants. Anyone have a greenhouse lit artificially?
