This plant box thing I made, I used four small LEDs around the base to light the under canopy, modest lighting is shared with the fish tank that's under it off camera, lights are situated above it and that's also off camera is reason. Planted seeds in Nov is March now 4 months to first harvest 3 "Purple Tiger" plants{15peppers} the Hallows Eve{3peppers} I also used this for Carolina Reaper but it did not like the water approach so was moved to potting mix and did just fine in the yard, soo this is lovely mood lighting type of peppers garden that continually yields and make lovely decorative fish tank addition
