So it's a little busy. But it's everything I have growing that isn't peppers. For now.
The current interior of the grow tent. In the lower right you can just see the towel that lovingly ensconces my germinating seeds (which are freaking sprouting! More on that in another thread, probably next week!).
In the upper right, the Mojito Mint Twins: The peppermint (middle left in the seed tray, probably not visible) is taking for freaking ever, so we picked up a plant that was already doing well at a shop. My wife wanted mojitos anyway, so this works. Anyway, the first thing I did was, of course, take cuttings! I didn't realize how quickly they'd take; two days and they're rooting conspicuously. We're gonna have a lot of mint.
The best performer has clearly been the first shiso I planted, middle right. I did have to move him out of the light, since he can't take all 1000W, though everyone else seems quite happy with it (aside from his partner in the lower right, lavender, who also seems displeased with excessive illumination).
Center stage are the basils. The Thai basil is growing a lot faster and is conspicuously leggy, despite being right in the path of those LED headlights; pretty sure I'm going to top those soon, which is ridiculous considering how briefly they've been growing.
Lower left is rosemary, which sure does take its time, but doesn't seem bothered by anything at all.
In the back are some failed pot-up vessels waiting to be recycled. I figure in about ten years I can use them for the lazy-ass peppermint.
