I got my "growing room" set up in my bedroom. My DD #1 who works for the "council for alcohol and substance abuse" kids me about what I'm growing under my lights. So far I've got a few cuttings of coleus, geraniums, bacopas, petunias, sweet potato vines and million bells. I also dug up begonias, petunias, tricolor sweet potato vines, geraniums, bacopas, and a vine ; cut them back and planted them (swished them in insecticidal soap also)!! I don't know how any of these will do as I've never done this before but I'll find out!! I also planted creeping thyme seeds between my stepping stones a few weeks ago and they had just germinated and haven't grown much so I'm digging some of those up, potting them and bringing them inside to grow for the winter - gee that sounds backwards!! LOL No idea how that will turn out either - another experiment!! Lots of experiments to keep me busy for the winter or everything could die soon and I'll have no projects for the winter - _:( Eleanor

p.s. How can a pic of something so bright come out so bad? It was such a dark photo I had to turn on the light on the shelf with no plants and edit the brightness on the finished photo.
