New Set up

Dad also thought the plants looked too leggy, so I've made some changes. First, he recommended I put tinfoil along the inside of the box. I don't have tinfoil, so I'm hoping white paper will do something along those lines. He also recommended I lower the glow lamp. Based on the fact that the plants in the plastic cup - closest to any of the grow lamps - are also the least leggy, this seems like a proven good. So I've attempted to lower the lamp. It's now only a couple centimeters away from the tallest morning glory. We'll see how this works! A problem will likely be that some of the plants will do the odd angular thing I've seen with the styrofoam lettuce(?). I'll have to try and rotate the lamp.
