Hello, Zach here
As most of you know, I am a collector of pinguicula and drosera (I also keep many other species as well). Well, most of my collection (about 95%) is grown on a shelf placed in front of a large west facing window. It is nearing winter now, and I get zero light from that window, depsite being quite bright in the spring and summer.) The plants have shown a reduction of leaf size, and i am guessing it is due to the low light. I was wondering if anyone knows of a rather inexpensive form of way to use artifical lighting. I have one terrarium under gorwlights, and those plants seem ok. What is a good, cheap brand for lights? Can any flourescent light, if bright, work? Thanks-Zach
