Most of my bulbs were purchased so long ago (3 years, maybe 4?) that I can't remember what they are for sure! But I think I remember reading that they should be replaced every year or so (obviously I am not good at following the directions) and it's past time I should buy a few new ones...so I went and took a look at what I have. They are a mixture of OTT-LITE Natural Lite Supplement (which are very white, and I can't find any wattage) and Philips Plant & Aquarium 40 watt (which are very pink in color). I can't find any Kelvin reference on either. Sorry I'm not more helpful. I'd love to hear if you find anything out from a better source than me!danger gardenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09227500551609537140noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1018965493805276234.post-66581107391344548102010-10-25T15:24:41.353-07:002010-10-25T15:24:41.353-07:00Looks fab for the plants in your cozy basement.

I'm setting up a small similar arrangement in my basement for the first time. I have a fluorescent fixture, but I don't know if a traditional "grow" lightbulb (very low color temperature) or a higher Kelvin (5000 full spectrum daylight or 6500 K) would be best. Any tips?Jane / Mulchmaidhttp://mulchmaid.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1018965493805276234.post-34418142671985645292010-10-25T12:47:14.123-07:002010-10-25T12:47:14.123-07:00Pam, I've recently learned that the east side ...Pam, I've recently learned that the east side of our street tends to not have basements...where as the west side does. Isn't that strange? My house in Spokane didn't have one either...luckily I had an attached "shop" where the Christmas decor, and odd furniture could be stored. I do love basements!<br /><br />Denise, I suppose. But I will still always fight it. And yes, doing the laundry is much more enjoyable now.<br /><br />ricki, did you get it done before the hideous rains hit on Sunday? Guess what we spent Sunday doing....working outside on the shade pavilion coverings. Yikes!<br /><br />Les, great idea!!!! The temps are actually okay here. It's the 1" + rain in 24 hrs for multiple days on end. Well, and plus the temps that will inevitably follow.<br /><br />Grace, oh god...you are so right! It really did.danger gardenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09227500551609537140noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1018965493805276234.post-69893066314756301462010-10-23T18:46:14.946-07:002010-10-23T18:46:14.946-07:00Loree, your babies are indeed well cared for.

I hope it includes a lounge chair, with a cup holder. <br /><br />I am hoping to make it to early November before the ordeal of dragging the plants in, and so far the temps are cooperating. We have gotten to 49, but that was only once so far.Leshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18281256160705697856noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1018965493805276234.post-73197038141328466442010-10-21T17:48:42.409-07:002010-10-21T17:48:42.409-07:00Nice preview of how I will spend my weekend.

But what a fine display that makes indoors. Too bad it's in the basement! Then again, lucky you have the basement to put everything in.
