Disclaimer: This is my rambling story of how and why I got a grow lab. Instructions to follow.
For the past couple years I have been using my classroom Grow Lab to start my plants from seed. Due to the fact that I have been sharing space with science projects I have dreamed of having a home version. A place where my plants can grow uninhibited by the growth of their neighbors. The only problem with having a "Grow Lab" or growing station at home was cost. I just couldn't warrant the cost of the commercial growing stations. That has all come to an end.
Much like most of my other gardening ideas this one started from a conversation with a fellow gardening freak. He was bragging to me about how he was going to make a grow lab from an old shop light, and it was only going to cost him a couple bucks to build to frame. Wel that got me jealous which got me thinking. I decided to look into what a shop light might cost. I did a couple google searches and then posted a question on facebook. The google searches didn't come up with much however my facebook friends assured me that you could get a corded shop light for around $10. So I watched a YouTube video from GardenFork.TV on how to make a cheap growing station and he said that I could find shop lights for $10. That was all I needed and I was off to the hardware store to see what it would cost to make my own. Stay tuned for the instructions and finished product.
