I bought the Maui for my seedlings and struggling plants. It's working out very well. In just 2 weeks, new roots, leaves and spikes have started.
I think I am going to rotate plants monthly so they can all benefit from this "spa treatment"

Looks nice. I would hesitate to keep the bottom plants under the top shelf because they will not receive much air flow from your fans which can cause disease, etc.

I've always thought something like this would be nice to have to put flowering plants in. My plants are in the basement under lights, and I don't see them unless I'm down there. If I got something like this, I could enjoy the ones in flower more.

Very nice Tess! I love it. I agree with Ben, i'd love to have something like this eventually inside the house to display my favorite plants as they are in flower! Thanks for sharing!!!

Peter- Thank you! And if the tags don't read Big Leaf they read Orchidview.

Steve- you're correct, so I rotate the plants every few days.

Ben, it would be perfect to display your flowering plants and keep them in a controlled environment.

Mike, thank you as always!

Nikki, I got the double light version and I am glad I did....just after a few days on the top shelf leaves get real purple.

They come in various sizes Mervin so the prices vary ($550.00 to $2500.00) and they're perfect for deflasked babies.
