Well the incadecent light was just a small little bulb I got, it's made for aquarium plants, I was just going to use it when the plant is a baby, so it's not too strong. Anyway, what about my main light that I bought? I just drilled holes in my closet ceiling and put it up there. Damn, it's bright when I close the door. Anyway, I don't have alot of money, in fact, it's my mom buying most of the equipment for me, and I looked everywhere at Wal-Mart for lights, and all I found where flourecent lights, such as the one I got (at least it was in the flourecent section, and it says it's a grow light...) But, I might go to this plant farm (if that's what they're called) that is about 10 minutes away. They have all kinds of plants, and I'd assume they'd have the lights I need. Also, in my closet, about 1-2' from the ceiling, I have a shelf that I can take off. I was thinking, I could put my plants up there, so they're closer to the light?

So, how much would a good but cheap light cost me? And should I mount it on the ceiling, or put them on the sides? If I put it on the ceiling, for a while I was giong to put my plant on the shelf, so it gets more light, but if I have to put it on the ground, my closet on the inside is carpet, so should I cover that with alluminum foil as well?

ALSO, one last question...: I know they (to mix the soil) say to put 80% potting soil, and 20% perlite, so do I just mix it all together, or put the perlite on the top or bottom or something? Thanks again, and please reply asap, as I want to feel at peace when I go to bed tonight, that I'll soon be on the right track.
horror business Reviewed by horror business on . Here are my materials. Can I grow? I'm 16, obviously underage, but before you tell me not to grow in my parents house, the risks involved, etc... let me assure you that my mother is aware of this, and was the one who bought me these supplies. Now I'll continue: I just got back from Wal-Mart where I purchased the following: Schultz Professional Potting Soil Plus : For African Violets & Flowering Plants Shultz Horticulture Perlite 12" green plastic pot GROW LIGHT Portable Light.
