>>1404136I planted some ramps about 20 years ago in my woods. This year I was able to harvest some seeds from them and plant a dedicated woodland bed for them. I also have a sugar bush I can make maple syrup from IF the winter weather is right. I've not been able to make maple syrup for the past 2 years. It's been too warm. I'd like to start some wintergreen.
>>1404331Drape a Mylar emergency blanket over it. You'll still see some light through it, but it will help contain most of it and they are super cheap. As for the lights, if you are only starting seedlings, that will go outside later, then anything 5k or higher color temp will work fine. 6k-8k is more ideal. You can use dedicated grow lights or some cheap shop lights. Lumens and color temp are the most important thing. Some plant types need more light than others. Like if you are doing tomatoes and cucumbers then the cucumbers would turn yellow from lack of light while the tomatoes were just fine. So, make sure you have tons of light for whatever you are going to grow. Just watch out for heat build up and keep a small fan blowing around in the tank.
