    That is a mind blowing tent that most cannabis growers would be envious of…. I have one of those full spectrum LED lamps on my 20 year old ficus bonsai and it LOVES that light! Plus less wattage burned! I have that same stuff growing on my bonsai tree bases as “ground cover”, I simply cut it with scissors and place it back on the soil as mulch when it gets too big, works awesome and less of it grows.

    That grow tent setup for the tropical trees is awesome! I have a small 2x4x5 tent that I do something similar with but on a MUCH smaller scale and I use similar lights but smaller as well. I would love to upgrade to a bigger tent like that one day but on a college students budget I can only afford to raise my electric bill so much each month. Hope Connor starts making videos of his own soon!

    The water from the table you can put in an old plastic box filter from the Aquarium shop and put in filter floss to keep the water clean. That way all the impurities are filtered out and the water is reusable. Just a thought.
