    Also, for deep shelves I like to use cups or things turned upside down to boost up the back layer to make it easier to see some of the plants if they're all the same height, gives some depth and dimension.
    Definitely love your new plant wall! So inspiring!!

    They sell longer cords so you can basically daisy chain all your lights into one power adapter. I think they said you can connect up to 16 of the 1ft Barrina lights in one power adapter.

    Another hour long video 🥹 you’re spoiling us! I got a power box to hide my power board! Just a plastic box with holes through the top and the sides so you can feed your cables through. I have a white one and a black one. It’s so sleek looking. 🌼

    Watching set-up vlogs is helpful. Right now, I don't have space for a shelf, so this is the perfect time to make a blueprint for future shelves. So far, I've landed on color coordination (shelves and fixtures), cord management (e.g., color, covers, placement), power-sources and timers; storage space for plant care items.

      That's what I did. I connected all mine together so one switch turns on about 8-12 lights at the same time. You can connect up to 12 lights together, so I have 1-2 plugs for every two book cases. Most of my lights are Barina.

I've even thought about covering the light w tape and spray painting them. Love love love your set up! I sure with my nearest IKEA store was closer than 5 hours away!

    Some plastic square and rectangular trays under your plants will lessen any excess water spilling onto your glass shelves...save any messes.
    I got heaps from 2nd hand stores for a few bucks each and use them all the time.
    Looking fantastic!
    You can use the top of the shelf too, for plants that don't need grow lights.
    I'd get a fire check by a local fire man to make sure you are safe, with so many electrical points.
    They do checks for free in my country.
    Keep rocking on, Jo in Nz😊

My top shelf has 2 so my high light plants are there and then some lower light plants are on a shelf with only 1 light and they do great! I hope this new set up brings you much joy!

    Oh and the sticky pads that comes with the Barrina lights will wear out and drop the lights on the plants as time goes on. I discovered this one morning. Thank God none of my plants were crushed or the lights were on. Lol. Try to get some strong double sided tape. It won’t budge!
    Edit: I commented too soon. Lmao. Your lights already fell! I’m glad you got the tape!

    I'm so glad you mentioned the nano tape. There is nothing quite like being awakened in the middle of the night to some weird crashing sound in your plant room and being freaked out. Then the next day you arrive to see the light has smashed some delicate plant. Some cute little elevators would be nice to add for height variation.

    You could try to get a cover box for the power-strip if you don't like seeing it. Either a cute or just simple black one and maybe use it as a little plant stand for smaller plants, then also run the cables behind the vertical bars or put a black sleeve on.
    And for the acrylic top, if I remember correctly it was quite expensive, so before ordering a new one you could try to use your hairdryer to get it warm and press it flat again.
    I just bought two cuttings of philodendron majestic, I have wanted one since I saw yours :D
