Keep your lights 2 inches above the plants they say. I say which plants? The 2 inch tall ones or the 1/4 inch tall ones?
Couple of those Daikon Radish really took off. I might try to carefully pot those up but they don't even have true leaves yet.

That was one shop light down the middle which explains the middle daikons.(note to self - daikons get tall fast - do separate tray)

Lights I just bought from Menard's are narrow so I put two side by side. I'm now 2 inches off those Daikon trees and 4 inches on everything else.

(hunk of wood, some wire and some screws)

When my flats end up looking like that, I just raise one end of the light bar, or lower the other.

Maybe we need a list of seedling heights so we don’t put tall seedlings in with shorter ones? LOL! ;)
