Thanks!

The blue stag is killed constantly by the green cap, but only where
It touches. The look of the cap growing around it is really nice though, good contrast in my opinion. The stag grows fairly quick now so I'm not too concerned.

I switched away from LED to a T5 fixture. There are ups and downs to both.

I’m very impressed on your entire build, well done! I’m almost done setting up my 220 and I’ll be borrowing a few ideas from you

Truly gorgeous! Can you share your thoughts of the sps growth under LEDs vs t5s and what made you switched?
