I added a bit more water than I was supposed to add, but it's been evaporating so I didn't bother with draining the excess. Here's how it looked when I first set it up. SMS substrate with miracle-gro water at pretty much full strength. Spray with 1/4 strength miracle-gro water every other day. Saran wrap cover under hood and light strip and 6 hour light period.
