INDOOR GARDENING! Steve Visits "The Grow Store" (Photos of Indoor Garden Items) - August 30, 2005
 |
The Grow Store in Colorado Springs! If you're a savy gardener
or interested in learning about indoor gardening, this is the place to go! It's located behind the Wendy's at Garden of the Gods Road & Chestnut. |

They've got vegetable plants growing in their own indoor garden. A huge and powerful 1000 watt light bulb provides an orange-shaded light for these tomato plants, banana plant (bottom left) and standing cucumber plant (in forefront).
Bottom Photo: I had my camera a facing straight up at the lamp. |

That's Doug, the owner of The Grow Store and indoor gardening guru. This guy knew way too much about gardening for his own good! :p) He was showing me some of the 1000 watt bulbs commonly used in indoor gardening. His web site is: The Grow Store.com. |
 |
He's got another area with blue and orange fluorescent lights hovering over various plants.
The plant in the back left is an orange tree. The one in the back right is a key lime tree.
I zoomed in on one key lime happily growing! :) |

Now this is interesting: I'm not much of a gardener or plant caretaker,
and this seemed like a great idea. You stick this contraption deep into soil of your plant, and when it senses the soil is dry, it automatically pumps water from a nearby container of water. I betcha I would still find a way to kill a house plant even with this thing! :p) |
 |
A few more gardening products: "Sods" to grow seeds without soil, organic seeds, and
guano fertilizer. Folks...
Guano is bird
poop. Yucky! |
 |
Ha ha ha ha ha!
Folks, this is funny. Check
out these two posters of Dr. P-Body! :)

One photo of
me under those
lights. Man, that lamp will fry your brain if you stay under it long enough! :p) |
