One of the most important aspects of indoor growing is controlling the lighting.

Monitoring Nutrient Levels
To ensure that your plants are getting the proper nutrients, you can use Amazon Alexa or Google Home to monitor the nutrient levels in your grow space. This can be done by connecting a nutrient sensor to your device and using voice commands to check the levels and adjust as necessary.

I used to smoke marijuana. But I’ll tell you something: I would only smoke it in the late evening. Oh, occasionally the early evening, but usually the late evening, or the mid-evening. Just the early evening, mid-evening and late evening. Occasionally, early afternoon, early mid-afternoon... or perhaps the late-mid-afternoon. Oh, sometimes the early-mid-late-early morning…But never at dusk.
