    I see your possibilities, eoooeleven. Is your light a single fluorescent? Looks like we are kind of heading in the same direction. I haven't grown violets under lights before, only in the windows.

    You may wanna move that shelf up closer to the light...

    I'm moving the light down to under the shelf, I just set it up yesterday and didn't the light suspended from underneath the top shelf yet. I'm getting there :)

    It's a grow light florescent tube I found at Wal Mart for pretty cheap. I have some more on the way, wanted to see how this one worked before I ordered more. I only did windows beforehand, too, so looks like we're in the same boat.

    It's getting there, thanks for asking! I just got 6 more standards from Rob's yesterday, so they are getting acclimated on their shelf. Some of my oldies look a lot better now that they have more light instead of a cold, wintry window. Now I'm just waiting to see what is unveiled for 2010! We just got a huge blizzard here, 4 feet of snow in my driveway, so I doubt I'll be able to order any more this winter safely :(

    I ordered 6 standards from Rob's, I got:

    Blackie Bryant
    Golden Threads
    Live Wire
    Ma's Bridal Bouquet
    Bold Party Girl
    And I ordered Ness' Ruffled Skies but they were out, so they subbed Optical Illusion. I'll take it :)

    They all came in great shape, half in bloom, all have buds, only one broken leaf out of all of them, very happy!

    I am in Nebraska, where the weather changes every 5 minutes.
