Oh geez, I can't get anywhere near that close with the tall growing sarrs in there. The light is at 18in right now form the tops of the potsOriginally Posted by Swagalotus
So after about a month of trying to use the growlight/mini greenhouse I decided to abandon the setup and concluded it a failure. Even after I put mylar all around the inside the plants still looked very unhealthy. They are now growing outside on my patio getting about 4 to 4.5 hours of direct sunlight a day. Although it's not much, this is all I can give them for now. Sadly, I lost 5 plants by trying out the mini greenhouse setup. I lost them to root rot(possibly a viral infection) and botrytis.Even after installing a fan and applying physan20 periodically, it was not enough to stop the infections. I lost two vfts =red piranha and big mouth, drosera intermedia, judith hindle sarracenia, and a $40 sarracenia hurricane creek white. I feel pretty discouraged right now and am just glad the rest of my plants are doing fine now and showing good improvement in growth and color. It just sucks that I will have to replace all the plants I lost.
