My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

Grow Light with Dwarf Lime Tree

13 years ago

I have a Northern facing apartment which gets relatively no direct sunlight through any windows or even on the patio. I know it is possible to grow herbs and smaller plants under a grow light successfully, will the same technique work with a dwarf lime tree? I have a 4' T5 fluorescent grow light now, should I upgrade to Metal Halide grow light which I have heard is better for fruiting plants.
