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.

Sleep Deprivation in Plants?

8 years ago

My timer had a wardrobe malfunction when the screw clip slipped and stopped turning off the lamps. It was a few days, I am sure, before I noticed this.

It got me to wondering, what happens to plants they go without darkness? Maybe the intensity of my lamps are no where the intensity of outdoors but still....

Do they get groggy, grumpy, lose concentration?
