We&#8217;re not huge fans of buying more gear (lights, tables, timers, etc) to deal with season-specific situations. We like our gear to be heavily used, not purchased for [&#8230;]]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[A theme you&#8217;ll likely notice about our indoor nursery is that we grow on tables, in contrast to popular shelf based systems. This is on purpose and has become our preference after trying things out both ways. A big reason we like growing on a &#8220;single plane&#8221; is because we can see all our plants, [&#8230;]]]></description>

We&#8217;ve demonstrated our grow tent, but let us also demonstrate that there&#8217;s other, simpler ways to approach the indoor nursery.

So, if it&#8217;s caught your eye, let&#8217;s spend a minute demystifying it. We were extremely early adopters of LED grow lighting technology.

Especially for us northerners that pay a pretty penny for their electricity. Energy is, hands down, the largest cost input of raising our garden from seed in the subarctic!

There&#8217;s lots of options out there, so let&#8217;s talk about our favorites and the choices we&#8217;ve made.

They are essential to our seed raising operation and are &#8220;the thing&#8221; that allows us to grow hundreds of garden starts indoors. One of the most underestimated things by new gardeners growing from seed indoors is the expansion it takes once you start [&#8230;]]]></description>

One of the important design goals we have in our indoor growing spaces is the ability to only use the lighting that we absolutely need at a given time.

Growing spaces can be more permanent/semi-permanent in nature, such as through the use of a grow tent. They can also be temporary, like setting up temporary tables for the growing [&#8230;]]]></description>
