I have a south-facing room "sunroom" with lots of tall windows. It's so nice to pick fresh salads in the middle of winter, especially sweet flavorful tomatoes which you can't get at the store. |

What kind of bulbs do you use? And do you have a timer for them, or do you keep them on 24/7? If you can justify killing one man, you can justify killing every man.

I have thought it might be the heat cause going down there is like walking into the center of the damn sun! |
