I'm such a newbie compared to you folks. I set up a shelving unit this year for the first time and used the Costco LED shoplights. They worked really well, and never got hot, which was good, and didn't burn the leaves that were very close towards the end. Also, very economical. I used books underneath for raising the plants, when I didn't want to bother with adjusting shelves, and towards the end, it got difficult because the plants were so tall. I'm in the Chicago area, so I couldn't put them outside until the very end of May.
