Tropicals & Tender Perennials: My "indoor greenhouse" for starting Plumeria Cuttings, 1 by LhasaLover

This is the end where I have the heater. It does not stay on very long... less than a minute to warm it up in there so I don't worry about it being near the vinyl but it is set up so it does not direct the heat right at the vinyl but in toward the center of the area. I check the soil moisture in the pots nearest it more frequently and they get more water. The tall plant near the front in the larger pot is about to move on to the top of the table due to quick growth since I set this up. It was a rooted tall stump that now has 11 points of growth along it... 6 around the top where it was cut off, 4 near the middle where more had been cut off and one near the bottom. It is probably a Celdine... white and yellow. Good thing about using the flourescent lights, they do not produce much heat and the plants can grow right up to them without any damage. So, the only limiting factor is the height of the table and I have already thought about raising it up a few inches on sturdy blocks.
