Effective Supplemental Lighting
I am currently using three, 40W SANSI grow-lights hanging from above in a south-facing windowsill. They are being used as supplemental lighting for my succulents and cacti. Since using the lights I have noticed that the colors and growth of my succulents have gotten to a level that I could not achieve with just the sun alone. These bulbs are definitely a must for any enthusiast that wants the best for their plants. I also have four, 40W grow lights on a 7ft Ficus lyrata in a west-facing window. Further, I have three 40W grow lights shared between a smaller strelitzia Nicoli and monstera deliciosa, also in a different west-facing window. The plants would all do ok without the lights, but I want them to have as much light as possible, and these SANSI grow-lights help me achieve that. UPDATE (01.04.2019) – For the record, I am based in Chicago and I have successfully eliminated winter using these lights • White cords – cheap ones Ikea sells without a power switch; around $6. They are suspended from a spring-loaded Umbra curtain rod hanger in a neat way and it allows me to independently raise/lower each light. I have been having to do a lot of raising of my light over the Euphorbia Trigona. That thing has been growing vigorously all winter. • Succulents – I will post a new photo with my next update. • ZZ plant – has been under a 40W grow light now for a few months and is really starting to take off. Slow growers? I think not. • Sterliza Nicolai – Growing well, continuously putting out leaves, each generation successively larger. • Monstera Deliciosa – putting leaves with many fenestrations and deep slits considering its young age. • Ficus Lyrata – NOT USING A SANSI GROW LIGHTS ANYMORE, for respect of the company, I am not going to state the light I am using on Amazon. I just needed to use something a little bigger for that tree. UPDATE (03.02.2019): Did some rearranging and potting up early to get a jump start on spring growth. I found that one C-stand is super useful for mounting these lights in a clean and versatile way.
