By this time next week, there should be a new frame to hold T5 4 lamp fixtures and to support this shelf in this window.

One of the best things about my move to AR, was the grow season! I am already planted outdide! In fact I run two full lunar cycles ahead of where I was in NY. I'll take some shots this morning of my greens I have coming up. Depending where you are at, you should start direct sow next full moon, and even getting some ready to be planted on the new moon. Greens do well (in general) sowed the full moon before the last frost. I LOVE THIS TIME OF YEAR!

That is awesome. I set my seed trays outside in the sun and bring them in at night.

It's been low 40's here and no sun, not an option. In 3 - 4 weeks I will put some of the kale in the cold frame, it will be big enough and hopefully the temps will have modulated.
