So what other plants are ideal for this setup? I wonder if it would work well with things like kale that is more expensive. Be good if you could grow baby bokchoy or something useful like that.

Guess i didn't add what was in each tub!
Tub 1 - 1x cucumber, 1x lettuce, 2x kale, 2x prizehead lettuce
Tub 2 - Lettuce
Tub 3 - Prizehead lettuce
Tub 4 - 3x butter crunch lettuce, 1x kale, 1x oregano, 1x swiss chard
Seeds planted today - 6x Organic non GMO romaine lettuce
***Today is day 40 from the start of the entire setup
How are your cucumber plants going, be interested to see where the cucumbers are going to grow as those plants get pretty big. I grew zuchinni in my greenhouse last year (similar plant) and the plant took over half of a 5 x 2 squarefoot garden.
Ill start gettin crazy at the end of summer once our outdoor garden shuts down. Were planting zero leafy greens outside this year, only carrots, tomatoes, peas, cucumbers,4x4ft strawberry patch and a watermelon i think? Really opens up the garden when you dont have a bunch of lettuce....
Ill be trying cherry tomatoes in the tent for sure, and pretty much whatever else catches my eye for seeds... I really feel like im running out of room already!

So far so good, im not sure if i need pollination since its a flowering plant? i know one guy tried watermelon indoors but he couldn't get it to pollinate.
Our cucumber plant in the tent is doing better then the cuc plant on our window sill, Both were planted on the same day.

So you're not really saving any money, it's really a hobby that you get to enjoy in more ways than one. It's like buying a fishing license and all the gear to go out and catch fish to eat - those will be expensive fish for most people especially if one adds in all the real costs of going fishing.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member.

100% yes its a hobby.

@spikerS I'm gonna need some real life pictures! 70ish days, hows everything tasting?
Lettuce is all standing up today, at this stage I can literally see the daily growth. The new light is making a huge difference, the reds coming out of the lettuce compared to the smaller light is night and day. Definitely will be picking up another one of the Mars lights...
Day 51
