Another thing you can do is add a Mylar back to you shelf. If you don’t know what that is look it up it great for growing plants. The big box stores that have camping also have Mylar blankets. The ones around me are 52″ x 82″ perfect for the back of your shelf. $2.89

I haven’t tried 24-hour lighting though it would be neat to do some testing on duration. I’m so bad at consistently turning on the lights. I’m actually in the market for a digital 24-hour timer and have only seen manual ones to date.

I have something…vaguely resembling yours, in the same way that a Pinto resembles a Maclaren F1 GTR :) My shelving is cheap plastic, the lights are held up with string, and there is non-gardening junk parked on any free space.

By the way, have you tried leaving the lights running 24 hours a day? I know, it seems unnatural, but I swear the seedlings love it. They tested 24-hour lighting in northern “Midnight sun” areas, and most seedlings seem to just soak it up.

happy gardening!
