that set up wasnt working for me. it felt like it was too bulky and it did take up alot of space.

i got this 5 level shelf at walmart for some $30.00. got it wired so that the light will shine through. i started the move with some neps to see how the light hits the structure. then from there i spent the rest of the day trying to figure out what neps should go where because of the light levels. now most of my neps are in full sun!

Hey man,
The new set up is a great idea. That N. bongso is developing great color!

Hi Santos:

Nice move, but i'd bet that it won't be long until you have that table filled with Neps again....different plants of course!
Once you own a Nep, you always want more

wow..

me likey!! i am impressed. great space-saving setup you've got there. i was actually thinking about getting some shelving like that for some of our stuff inside but never got around to it.

thanks for sharing pics. that is very nice.

Hey Santos:

I forgot to mention that when i used to live in an apartment i also had a set up very similar to yours, but there was a big problem: not enough light exposure, so the message is: make sure your plants get enough light for them to pitcher properly.
