Grow lights are much cheaper on Amazon, but I realize this video is old.
Obsolete vid
5% not a lot
Looking for light info now – they no longer carry anything like this in case anyone is watching video 12/2/20
I watch you all the time. Love your videos. Thanks
Love that cute little light. I want to win!! Thanks for your great videos!
Painted the underside of the cabinet the brightest high gloss white I could find and noticed an increase in the light under the cabinet. Waited till the DW was out and did the bottom of all the cabinets and reduced the shadows underneath.
How does this video have any up votes? You promised a whole garden for under $50. Instead we got a commercial for a $50 light. You didn't even show us that it had successfully grown any plants for you.
To summarize this video: buy this grow light that I'm sponsored by and then buy herbs.
This is a good channel but this video is pretty useless
I'm sorry but this video could have been 30 seconds long and titled a "how to poorly hang an overpriced LED"
Okay what is that filing system in that basement? That’s actually a really great idea, doing this when I get a house
so cute LED light !! i want one
Happy Leaf Grow Light promo, not a veggie garden vid
Thank you been looking for proper lighting for my herbs Growing in MI year round.
Found the full-spectrum plasma light ….. $1,200. I think I could buy organic herbs for many lifetimes for that amount.
Okay, learned a lot from this video. Thank you. Now I just want to offer a little food for thought:
a) You programmed the lights to come on at night while you guys are asleep. Plants, like humans, do need times of rest in total darkness and unless that area gets totally dark, you might want to try having them on during the day when you might find use for the extra light, as well.
b) I can't provide you with a resource but I once read an article that claimed that even light from an adjacent room can inhibit the body's natural production of melatonin, even if doors are closed. The same article stated that the illumination of an alarm clock on a bedside table can do this, as well.
c) Between LED lights and actual sun are full-spectrum plasma lights, which I understand are pricey, but I can't seem to locate any to determine just how pricey.
Thanks for the video!
Curious to see why you insist this video isn’t sponsored? Then you give a sales pitch and have a 5% off deal…? Lol
Hi! I'm looking to help my herbs and indoor plants thrive and I think this light will be perfect! The plants are already sitting on my kitchen counter underneath upper cabinets so it will work beautifully.
I have a question- why do you have the light on at night vs. during the day?
Would love to know! I look forward to watching more of your videos! Thanks!
can you take these plants back outside after winter?
Thank you
My biggest concern is how long it will take to make $50 back growing the tiny amount of herbs that will fit under such a tiny light. I can get basil for $3-$5 per plant at the grocery store. It would take ages to grow enough basil to make 50 bucks worth it. That’s still insanely expensive.
How close to the led light would you place new seedlings?
What I enjoyed is finding your channel. I’ve learned so very much. I’ve started a kitchen herb garden in mason jars for the first time and found this vid trying to see when I can take them away from the grow lights and put them in the window. I’ve now learned I really can’t so I could use this light for sure. I have also started my whole garden this year from seed and all is going well so far but I only have three 4’ lights and I’m running out of room already lol. Anyway thank you so much for your vids I really like them and have learned a lot. Looking forward for more. Have a good day. 😁
I'm just glad I found you! I'm learning so much. I don't feel like a cursed gardener anymore now that I'm finding out the problems I've had were not my fault. I have hope and am looking forward to future gardening.
I enjoyed watching your progress with the 87 year old tomato seeds and love the idea of this small, quality, LED grow set up. Perfect for kitchen herbs among other things and, I would think, great for people with limited space, like those living in apartments, who really want to grow something themselves.
I ended up getting the 33" model, the light is pretty impressive. That model only draws 48 watts and puts out an amazing amount of light. Thanks for the lead.
Def the 87yr old Tomato and the video on high intensity spacing
Is it purple in real life or is it just on video?
