High-intensity 2-tier light garden

Advertisement

Our Vermont-made light gardens employ the latest in lighting technology to give your plants the ideal quality and intensity of light
for optimum growth. You can start plants from seed, grow herbs, houseplants and even orchids.
Our ultra-light fixtures have a slim profile to give plants plenty of headroom. They measure a full 14" wide to ensure even light
coverage across each shelf. Inside, there are three T-5 bulbs that produce an abundance of brilliant, full-spectrum light. These bulbs
use 45% less energy than standard fluorescent bulbs and provide up to 7,500 hours of use.
Each fixture has its own pull chain for easy height adjustments, plus electronic ballasts to eliminate buzzing. This complete light
garden includes frame and fixtures, T-5 bulbs, watertight trays and casters.
With the help of one other person, you can assemble your 2-Tier Light Garden in about an hour. Put the Frame together first, then
assemble the Lights and hang them in the frame.
Before you begin, identify and organize all the parts on a flat, clean surface and gather your tools. As you organize the parts, note
that most pieces are labeled with a part number. Follow the illustrations closely to be sure the parts are oriented correctly as you put
them together. Assembly begins on the next page.
