How much is the discount for? It was hard to tell but I am looking for a grow light. When does it expire?
@@gypsylee333 $10 off, but you have to spend at least $160 I think it said so just a single 16 watt grow light isn't eligible. I just used the discount myself to purchase a 32 watt one and it worked! Not sure on the expiration though. I'd like to be able to use her link again to purchase two of the smaller ones when I'm making my cabinet because I really like what she did with them. 😅 Won't be able to do that for a while though lol.
so I love your ideas. just saw the setup with your old lights and now seeing this one where you're replacing them. I know you like the look of the new lights better, but other than the new company sponsoring a video, what is so much better than these new lights? I dont care so much about looks, I care more about functionality and affordability
Just bought 2 lights thank you for the code
With the 4 pin fans what is the adapter you talk about. And are these fans waterproof
My boyfriend is a big pc person and he watched this video with me and noticed your fan is a 3pin fan while the adapter is a 4pin: he says that should work perfectly but he says you may hear the noise of the fans. you could use “be quiet pure wings 2” fans , they are 4 pin (just like your adapter), circulate much more air, and are a ton quieter (19.2 dB/A) which is not noticeable to us in everyday life! They come in many different sizes and are regarded as some of the best quiet fans for moving air. (ps love your videos and the cabinet looks great 🫶)
Oh this is so great to know, thank you! They are pretty noisy, so I would like to look into that. I appreciate his knowledge 🙌
Noctua is good as well
Thanks for posting this
Is it waterproof?
Where would I find the fans
Do I have a Milsbo? No. Do I plan to get one? No. Will I watch this whole video? Yes.
Okay fern I’m convinced we are soul sisters because each time you upload I put my baby for her morning nap and I have my iced coffee and peace ☮️ yay!!!!❤❤❤❤❤
Hahah I love that so much 🙌❤️ enjoy friend x
Same here! Baby girl is napping, I've got coffee and a new wildfern video 👍
Dam I just literally smoked my ice and drank my coffee. My babies are currently my cactus and succulents which just woke up from their nap when their grow lights turned on and I am planning on getting orchid babies for this cabinet. Small long prolifically flowering orchids and a dwarf fuchsia or two I think could make prolific amounts of flowers hopefully for most of the year. You might see my plants and feel jealous of what I have but I see your life and feel jealous of what you have. I would like to have a girlfriend and leave the drugs behind forever.
The metal hooks have to be the best idea you've incorporated. Looks so much nicer and everything you've done will definitely make your plants happier. Better humidity, light, air circulation. Excited to see how your plants do with all these positive changes!!!
Ahh thank you so much! They already seem really happy in there, can’t wait to give a better update later on 😊
Wow, I didn’t know I needed this video. Was feeling a bit meh about my greenhouse cabinet since moving about a year ago but you just gave me the motivation to redo it and hopefully fall in love with it again!
Really nice set up Fern! It looks beautiful and so sleek 😍 I bet your space feels more tidy getting the boxes and packaging out of the way. I know you’ve had some of those for awhile.
You do SUCH a good job sharing product specs without making it sound like you’re rehearsing what the sponsor wants you to include. Mother is very lucky to be partnered with you 💚🌱
Ok this is the motivation I needed to get my things together 😫 but I LOVE seeing all the ways you can customize the cabinet to your liking.
Thank youuuu 🥰😘🌿
You look especially glowy and flourishing! I truly feel like spring is upon us and I know we're starting to feel those sunshine vibes ☀!
You’re quite right about those of us who’ve had to wait being able to capitalize on the lessons learned 😊📝 I have a whole notebook full for when I get around to doing mine, after I move next
Also, I built a cabinet ages ago for other 😏planty purposes, and used those pc fans - heck yes they ARE powerful! If yours doesn’t have multiple speeds (run it on low!), I ended up putting mine on timers so they wouldn’t run 24/7, it was creating too much airflow and drying everyone out
I don't know if this could help at all but Noctua makes a fan controller that you could hook those computer case fans up to with a splitter. That way you could have adjustable fan speeds from a little knob on the outside of the cabinet. That will also help with the noise and lifespan of the fans bc they wont be running at full speed when they're plugged in.
Maybe for your non magnetic shelf you can sandwich at magnet on top on the other side?
What's the brand of the double sided tape you used before??? That looks soooo trusty..😂😂
What kind of shelves are these? I want to swap out my glass ones.

Welcome to the world of hidden cable management
This video could not have come at a better time! I’m moving to a new place and decided it’s the perfect time to reconfigure my ikea greenhouse cabinet. Thank you for the inspiration!!!
Aren't the magnetic hooks the best? I've been using them for all sorts of things in my ikea cabinets including hanging my strip lights. Also I have two small computer fans(I only use one per cabinet) and they have adjustable speeds 👍
I have the slightly smaller Kasa power strip and use the USB spots for the fans
Where did you get the black metal shelf for the cabinet?
Since getting my cabinet watching others clean and upgrade theres has become one of my favorite pass times. its so satisfying!
Thank you for watching
where did you get the big wildfern shelve?
I just ordered custom acrylic corner shelves for my Milsbo wide-it was expensive and worth every single penny.. bc u keep the height in the middle and then just the corners u can fit smaller stuff. Anyone considering acrylic shelving for ur cabinet do it
Ooo that’s gonna look gorgeous!
I still waver back and forth wether I should get a cabinet or not.. what do I do with it when the plants are too big!? I don't have enough space in my tiny bungalow to have furniture that doesn't serve a purpose. But I love them! Looks fantastic Fern! And how awesome is that dyson! I don't know why it took me soooo long to get 1.. 😄
Yep Fern, getting my cabinet!!! It looks just awesome!!!! 😊
I love the video! I just cleaned out my cabinet this past week 😅 I use the AC Infinity fans from Amazon and they’ve been going strong for 2 years straight! Mine have a little tiny switch that lets you alternate between low, medium, and high speed. My cords also came assembled. Can’t wait to see the next update!
I’ve been looking forward to this!! What a lovely start to my Friday morning 🥹🌱
I do not understand why everybody on youtube bought Ikea cabinets. What the matter whith that ? A real grow tent is more usefull and adapted to grow plants, and until they'll be mature... An Ikea box is just a gadget for children. Personnaly, I have a grow tent de 240 cm x 120 cm x 200 cm with 2 spider farmer sp 400O and fan and you can believe me. It absolutly ideal... I will never ever grow plants differently now...
I agree on waiting is sometimes better. Last fall I finally had opportunity to have a friend go to IKEA to pick up 2 RUDSTA cabinets and used the magnetic hooks. Also, did not drill the massive hole in the bottom of the cabinet. Just drilled the smallest hole possible for the wire to go through at the top of the cabinet too thread the light wires through and down the back. Used grommets to make the hole tight around the wire. Your foam tip was great idea! Good you increased the number of outlets on the power strip. Invaluable! Found the RUDSTA had fairly large gaps around doors and sides so weather stripping a must. If doors hard to close after, use a handy magnet at top of doors to help keep them closed. Can’t see mine because it’s black same as cabinet.
You do not need waterpoof lights. Especially at that price. I'd rather just keep replacing broken $10 LEDs. But I won't have to because they'll be fine anyway.
Hello, Where did you order the rack shelves? thanks
I don’t think they’re available anymore :(
I love love love that you always spell w a l k out to us 😂 it's adorable
I know if she hears you she will go nuts( I'm assuming I know my mom's dog is that way) 😂I just wanted to say I love it everytime you do it
Carry on with your regular comments lol
Hi Wildfern. Please share the lighting info and the fan information. I just purchased a cabinet, it’s not together yet. But I know I’ll want the best products inside. Thank you
Your cabinet turned out so good 🤩 definitely giving me ideas for when I fix up mine again. I hope I can upgrade to the plantspectrum lights one day 🥲 - I think those made the biggest difference!
Do you get fungus/mold in your cabinet? I have a few plants in soil and they keeps getting little balls of fungus throughout the pot. I'm not about having it in my living space because allergies. I don't have fans but open up the cabinet for airflow.
Ok I have found it 🥰
How about moss growing on foam substrate on side and back walls and everything sprouts from that. W earth on floor. Looks good
The mother lights seem powerful. Are you sure it doesn’t burn the plants this close? I feel like something perhaps lower wattage like like barrina is enough for a grow light in a cabinet. And lower power consumption
AYO i just heccin messaged you yesterday about grids HAHA perfect timing♡♡ thank you ferrrn! im loving this video
Tell me everything, I want to know it all. I have no plants but I am smoking weed, so I have some plants. 💚💚💚
Where did you get the metal shelf from I just love it❤ love your ideas thanks for inspiring us.
hey fern! do you still have the same set-up today? would be interesting to know if you changed it again or if you have been happy so far! xoxo kat
How do you prevent fruit flies etc... I just can't get rid of the damn things!
When my Kasa power bar stopped working I found out that it was because my internet router was to powerful!
I assume you take the plants out of the cabinet to water them. If so, for those pots with drainage holes, do you wait until no water is dripping out the bottoms before you can put them back in?
Do you have 2 different sizes of grids in your tall Milsbo cabinet?
Bonjour, vous achetez où l'étagère, merci. Je suis un fans de vous, votre vitrine est très belle
Great video thanks for info I'm hoping to get milsbo wide😊
could I grow miniature orchids with this type of light?
Too bad the power cord isn’t black. Then it would disappear out of site.
Actually just because it costs you 2$ per month doesnt mean ist the same for anyone. It depends on the individual costs for electricity. In Germany these two lights are up to 4€ which is 6 canadian $. You could do better and tell people how to calculate on their own. So for everyone reading, you multiply the Watts the light needs with the ours it runs per months. Divide by 1000 and multiply with your own electricity Price per kwh. So for example one mother light with 16 Watt run for 12 Hours per day 30 days per month ist (16*12*30):1000= 5,76. My local price is 0,36 Cents/kWh so ist 2€.
My example was for the US, as that's where most of my viewership is, I should have added that!
How did you get those shelves shipped to you? It says it doesn’t ship to the us or Canada.
And the wire you put to support your shelf ans baskets i will like to know where to found thems thank you
Where did you get the magnets? Do o you have a link for them?
I bought a holer that has adhesive to connect to the bottom of my cabinet. I use the kasa smart strip too!
Hiya, what is the dimensions of the cabinet as I'm trying to find one in the uk
me encanto el video
This is such a great idea and it holds so much
What brand of suction cups are those 😅😅 The ones I have tried don’t work so I wanna try those for my cabinet 🪴♥️
They are these ones: a.co/d/gYKsKzN
Fern everything looks great, big difference. I have the mother 32, I use it with the stand.I wish I knew about your code, I ordered it last month, I totally forgot tbh. I need a 16 so I will use your code this time, and free shipping through the company, can’t beat that. You’re right, I see such a big difference in the growth of my plants, so worth it. Mother has the best lights👌🥰🫶
Lol you’ve got a lot of Recycling to clean up and trash.
How did you set up the light and fan automation with your phone?
I love this. Unfortunately I can't afford to do it yet but I can start preparing. Where do you get your magnetic hooks?
Hey! The hooks are from Amazon :)
Those lights look so much better. The light is so white. Not off color
Do you have a link for the grids and baskets?
Fern, are you a swiftie?? It looks like the Midnights vinyl above your bed!!
Yes!!!! Praying she brings the Era’s Tour to Canada next 😭
UA-cam algorithm recommended me this video and omg I think it must have been a sign because I just moved from a hot and humid state to a barely gets hotter than 70 degrees state and was STRESSING BAD about my plants!! After seeing this video I am fully inspired to build an ikea greenhouse now! XD Would you consider updating or recommending alternatives to the products you used during this video/on your amazon list? I saw some of the products are no longer available and was wondering what alternatives you would suggest might also work. Thanks and I hope you have a lovely day/night!
Love your videos! Very informative. Question, I’m building a Rudsta GH and was wondering if one of those Mother lights would be sufficient enough? Or should I have multiple?
Where did you get the large grid on the back of the cabinet?
Wow! You did a fantastic job! It looks stunning 🥰
Big offtopic (sorry for english, im not native speaker) but consider putting down that "key chain" or how its called from your dog`s neck. They hear many times better than we do. Just take bunch of keys yourself and shake them right next to your ear. You`ll feel immediately how uncomfortable and even a bit painful it is. Dogs need to listen to surroundings when they walk, its their natural behaviour and this is interrupting them quite heavily and also lead to some OCD/ADHD like issues later on. Im getting many dogs with metal stuff on their neck every day in ambulance and every single time i shake bunch of keys next to owners ear they immediately take them off of their dogs. Just try it. Loving your channel.Have a nice day.
Yeeessss girl! I just bought my tall cabinet and I watched all ur videos 😍🪴🙌 Big thanks for the Mother Lights 🙌😍 and the code. Ur the BEST and keep doing these videos. I'm obsessed with Hoyas 😍😍😍❤️❤️❤️❤️
Led grow lights don't cost much to run, I have 11 grow lights, I know it's a lot, but most are 20w equivalent, at most they use 300w in total if you think about, a home pc, running your dryer, etc are way more power and we don't even think about it, my electric last month was $101
Hi Fern, I'm wondering why you haven't jumped on the 'planted' Ikea cabinet train yet? Yours looks beautiful!
Hi did you order your ste of baskets on amazon thanks
Good job! Looking so nice :) I'm thinking and I wish one could get that grids but like transparent plexi for example. I would definitelly want that if I was doing a greenhouse cabinet :) I supouse one always can make that for order.
Great idea stuffing the oversized piece of foam into the base panel hole. Why not do that both sides? No need to cut/drill/melt a hole for power cords - just snip to the centre with scissors to make a closed letter C (not a Pac-Man! No need to remove any material). Slide cable to the centre and stuff foam back in place. Done.
Always makes my day one filled with possibilities after watching your videos. Thank you!!
We work so hard for our plants but it’s so worth it. Great job on your Ikea cabinet. You are so hands on and handy. Love it 🥰
Thanks so much! 😊
Do you like worm compost tea for fertilizer?
I now wish I had black cabinets and not white
Where did you get the custom metal shelf? Really wanting one of my own!

This looks like a lot of fun…for us to watch. For you it’s work. I’m sure you’ll enjoy it when it’s done.
It was a lot of work, but it was so worth it :)
girl where are those pants from?? i love them 🤩
Hi, I found your channel about a week ago and subscribed. I have been watching tons of your videos. I enjoy them all. I like how you did the greenhouse. I will be going back and watching all of the greenhouse videos. I would be interested in knowing how the suction cups go. Anytime I have used them, they have eventually fallen off. I might have used magnetic hooks and wires or ties to hang those racks rather than the suction hooks. The magnetic hooks are great and it looks like they have strong magnets. I think I wold add more of them along the racks though to help support the weight of the plants. Great job! Off to watch more of your videos. 🙂
I stumbled across your video because I may be doing Rudsta wide greenhouse cabinet setup and got to your section with the fans and found on Etsy some people make some really nice fan mounts for PC fans that can suction cup or magnet mount with the screw holes on the fans.
Also as for the extra pin, some PC fans have 4 pins for what's called PWM, it basically allows a PC to adjust the fan speed based on temperatures, would be cool if someone made a plug for that for greenhouse cabinets to control humidity and temp.
I need to redo my Ikea glasshouse cabinet and got some really good ideas from your video - so thanks alot wildfern 👍👍👍👏👏, really good job, love your new cabinet look!
Hi, would love to know which suction cups are you using in your cabinet, have bought new milsbo cabinet just yesterday and my plant spectrum lights are delivered too. Thanks for the code. Literally can’t wait to built it ❤
Perfect timing! I finally got my first milsbo a week ago and have been so busy with work I haven’t had time to set it up.
Can you pretty please share where you got your metal grid and baskets from? 💖🪴
Question- do you think the cabinet needs ventilation coming from the outside? Grow tents use them, I’ve wondered if they would be useful in these plant cabinets as well in order to keep a healthy flow of fresh air coming through.
Omg the new look is so good Fern! The black really makes the plants pop with the green 😊
A suggestion could you not mount the power bar underneath the cabinet? So like it’s kind of hidden and also wouldn’t get dropped on? But could be a pain trying to plug things in 😂 just a thought.
Love the video though!!!
Fern what suction cup hooks do you use? I've looked on Amazon and of course mixed reviews on everything 🙄
Love this video for what is your favorite Taylor Swift song💯🙂🤔👋
Omg that is such a hard question... I am tempted to say My Tears Ricochet, anything off of Folklore! x
Fern! Don’t be too concerned about your Aglaonema not rooting (unless it goes downhill)… aglaonema are some of the slowest rooters EVER!
So how do you feel about the fan velocity now? It’s not too rough for the smaller plants?
It seems to be okay. My concern is that it would damage new leaves coming in, so I will keep my eye on that. But right now it actually seems fine.
I’m setting up my first milsbo and have been waiting for this! Such great ideas using magnets and zip ties for the lighting and for the fan placement. I couldn’t help myself and ordered the acrylic shelving with different shelf configurations from Etsy. I’m thinking of getting the acrylic “pegboard” also. I want my plants to kind of look like they are floating rather than sitting on a shelf. But I can see how you can’t give up your personalized wildfern black grid shelf. I’m also thinking of drilling a hole for all the cords in the back top right corner instead of in the bottom. I was thinking I might be able to secure all the cords along the black frame on the outside of the cabinet, thus hiding them better. Any thoughts?
You’re so clean. Wowzers. Always notice that. Also, gash dang girl, when you clean, you clean. Looks great
Love this video! Where did you get the wire accessories from? Apologies if I missed it somewhere 😅
Amazon! They’re linked in my storefront :)
I just added all of your products to my cart! I am finally gonna take the dive and buy a cabinet ❤ also i added your fertilizer. I left a comment on your most recent video asking about it. Thanks for so much amazing information
hi fern!!!! do you fertilize your plants everytime you water? ive been experimenting with a light seaweed fertilizer everytime i water and my plants seem to like that opposed to a more heavier fertilizer monthly! i love your videos so much!
I've been looking into finally setting up my own milsbo cabinet and you've inspired me! The mother grow lights look really good in there so I might look into that myself. Been wanting to pick some of them up anyway. 😅
My choco red you suggested I put in a little bag for humidity is FINALLY showing some new life, but boy has she been through it.
I love the ac infinity computer fans! Have worked great for me in my cabinet, isn’t super loud, and doesn’t seem to be too powerful 😊
Man you really grow the best hoyas, I can't get my var heuschkeliana or my serpens to look even like 5% as nice as yours! The new setup looks incredible :)
