My greenhouses are anything but dark, but I do supplement the light during the fall and winter months with fluorescent lights. I have 4 fixtures x 4 tubes of T-8 x 4' in each GH and they are all on timers. The shorter the day-light, the longer they are on. I use really full-spectrum tubes not the ordinary "soft" light tubes.

You can purchase longer length tube fixtures for larger areas.

The reason it's so hard to lose weight when you get up in age is because your body and your fat have become good friends.
