That's an amazing Setup! As of now I have one of those mini balcony greenhouses, but they are kind of expensive. Is it important to have 80% Humidity? I can't find those large domes anywhere, but they look a bit easier to maintain and cheaper than a greenhouse. Thanks for sharing. What kind of led is Best? Blue/red or just white? Thanks so much

Humidity requirements are different for different plants; 80% is a good RH for most plants. Look for them at your local gardening stores, they usually sell these domes and trays. I'm not a big fan of purple lights so if you ask me, I'd prefer white LEDs (4000k-5500k). Willy

Another amazing example of plantitude on the forum. For the rest of us: details on lights, temperatures...... Each tray gets 30w of LED lighting, in this setup I am using 5000k color temperature, 4000k to 6000k range seem to work as great. The LEDs are passively cooled, so no more fan noises For humidity level, I can control it by lifting or lowering the dome above the tray, using some 3D printed supports. As for temperatures, it depends on the local temperature; generally day temperate is about 3-5°C warmed than night temperature.
