Indoor Lighting for Kitchen Herbs & Lettuce
Jjean59 11/22/2024, 5:45 pm
I am looking for recommendations for a shop light that doubles as a grow light for herbs and lettuce. I know they exist and arent that expensive but I cant remember where I saved that information.
Once I figure it out, I'm going to do some kratky mason jars for a little indoor garden this winter

There are a lot of options for shop lights that will work for this setup, just make sure it is 5000 Lumen or higher, such as these on sale at Sam's Club.

That is the setup I have, with shelving, and it works great. I have old T12s. Still getting it done!

Thanks! I found a good deal at Harbor Freight over the weekend. As a club member I paid about $10 each.
