Hello Everybody,
I have a few questions on how to continue my pepper plants growth throughout our winter. I posted the topic in the lighting section but no bites(don't know if this topic works here too) Others have PMed me that are in need of advice on this exact same thing so I hope yall can help. I have an 8X6 Greenhouse in the back of my garage that I'm getting ready for my pepper plants for a winter home. It's my first year overwintering and because alot of my plants are so late in production and our weathers been so shitty this year I would like to keep em growin so they can reach full potential, have fresh chiles in the winter, and huge plants next year
Anyway.. I didn't wanna spend a shit ton of money on 100dollar bulbs so I bought 4 48in growlights that I have hanging in 4 reflective shop light fixtures I'll be buying 4 more bulbs soon.. I'll have a couple fans goin in the greenhouse and the garage will be isolated from the cold.. I was wondering if that will be enough light? and should I be putting any reflective material in the greenhouse on top of that? and what lights do you experts suggest or any other tips would be wonderful. I bought 4 of these..
