Got my first flower! Unfortunately, it was a bit too enthusiastic and was flush against the LED lights by the time I found it...

Three flowers so far, one more coming soon! These do seem to be just barely too tall for a Sprout or Harvest, so I'm going to see if I can get the flowers to grow out to the sides of my Sprout.

I noticed that when I moved the flowers to outside the Sprout, they closed up... not sure what to do about this yet, but I'll check them again tomorrow.

How about supplemental lighting next to a window,Error? The Sprout is currently by a window so I'm hoping that will provide enough light, but I only have one south-facing window and it's already full of Kratky containers (including my other California Poppy)

Looks like the ambient light is enough for them to open, and the pink one opened up!

Gorgeous! I love the painted brushed look! It not only has pink and white, but a faint hue of yellow!

I'm not too big of a fan of how I have to constantly save the flowers from trying to burn themselves, but I love the flowers! For reference, my Sprout is at max height.

They are beautiful, even though they are trying to escape the Sprout!

I love the colors. Yes, what Corinne said. If they keep growing like that, what about your tent?

Today I took a look at noticed that it was almost out of water. Oops.
The plants look healthy, but the roots are a dark brown color, darker than I would expect from the nutrients. They don't smell bad, but I added a bit of hydrogen peroxide just to be on the safe side.
