Discussing lighting options

[@michaelmccarthy4077]

ripping off the roof option seems to be getting better and better, much less to think about.🤣

@michaelmccarthy4077 Hey Michael 👋 YEP! You gonna come help we rip the roof off? 🤣🤣🤣🤣Have a wonderful weekend 🤗 🌹 🩷 💚

Haha! Perfect. 😂

Perhaps you haven't considered this option? self stick "Mirror Tiles" / cheaper than new lights and appears you just need to bounce it around more effectively. ?

[@hillbillyorchids]

@BBQNBLUES Hey Glenn, that's a thought 🤔 yea i guess sort of needs bounced around better. I think it may help too if my walls were white. Plus honestly the way my electric bill keeps going up! It's crazy! $330.00 last month! Maybe addition of lights I can't afford! 🥺 Have a wonderful weekend 🤗🌹🩷💚

The light Rick suggests looks like a great light! And a ‘Phal wall’ I like the sound of that 😂❤… I am SO curious to see the changes 🎉 good luck and you will make it work and look great, I am sure you will!

[@hillbillyorchids]

@TheOrchidSaGa Hey hon, I definitely get my Phal wall inspiration from you! 😁 I appreciate that! Your so kind. Have a wonderful weekend 🤗 🌹 🩷 💚

Oh, jeez what a hard decision you have! I'm not any help because I don't need lighting like you do. I like the idea of the light Rick suggested but I don't know enough to say it would work for you. Wishing you the best of luck with your decision.❤🙏

[@hillbillyorchids]

Hey sweetie I appreciate it anyway 😊 it is a difficult decision. I hate to add more lights cause of cost of my electricity bill now!😂 Hope you have a wonderful weekend 🤗 🌹 🩷 💚

My goodness it’s so hard to give advice. Ricks round light sounds great, but so do Barrina lights. I’m sure what ever you decide will work just fine. Hugs sis.🫂🎀💕🥰

[@hillbillyorchids]

@shirleyholt898 Hey sweetie Miss Shirley 👋 Yea I know! 🤣 either will work. Then others came up with reflecting the light. So that's an option. Because electricity is SO expensive. Hope you have a wonderful weekend sis 🤗🌹🩷💚

Good day sis, thanks for the video! What BBQNBLUES said about bouncing light-a huge BINGO! Some marijuana growers use Mylar sheets for their grow rooms..it bounces light like crazy, it’s like aluminum foil but thinner (Amazon).. I use it in plant areas. Huge difference. It does have to be replaced and/or wiped now and then to clear dust. Also white gloss paint just in the area(s) where the light is bouncing/hitting-ceiling? Corners to light up? Did a lot of home renovating years ago-painting walls (including floor and ceiling) is probably still biggest bang for buck (Mylar too probably). That being said I’m now bound and determined to get the black light destroying shelf racks cleaned and spray painted gloss white. More bang from electricity costs.. Hey how about the Phal wall being painted before plants go up 🤔 Iffin I was younger I’d come help ya.. 😘

[@hillbillyorchids]

@bettedaviseyes8563 Hey sweetie 👋 thanks! Yea I was thinking the ceiling should be white and your right, especially with electricity costs! Ugh! I do hate to add more to my $330.00 a month now! 🤦‍♀️ maybe i should try bouncing the light. 🤔 more food for thought. Hope you have a wonderful weekend sis🤗🌹🩷💚 Thanks for your input! 🫶

@@hillbillyorchids All the best-these aren’t the easiest decisions.. have a great weekend! 🌸🩷🍇🍒🍬

seems like everyone I see swears BotanicalLED's are the superior very best! I have gotten several of them recently and they seem really nice. I have Barrina t5's over a bunch of miniatures and also have 2 spiderfarmer SF600's and they seem ok. time will tell but if money was not an issue, I would go with all BotanicalLED's.

[@hillbillyorchids]

@@pealseypix Hey hon, thanks 😊 yea that's what I'm thinking. But I'm switching how they are setting also. So many changes coming! I'm hoping to move my plants to the next level! 😊 Have a wonderful week 🤗 🌹 🩷 💚

I have barrina lights. If you have 2 feet, lights, then you can connect to lights .If you get. If you get four lights that's works good also. If you get the big light for the middle check comments first. Hope this helps.

@lisaallen7219 Hey hon, thanks 😊 yea barhina connect which is awesome! Thanks for letting me know. Appreciate that! Have a wonderful weekend 🤗 🌹 🩷 💚
