dpren,

Thanks. I worry about that much light since my basement stays so warm. With the light on right now, it's 64. I feel like they'd shut down more if it was 55 like your basement. I've got everything jammed in and crowded right now, and will keep on eye on them for a while to see what happens. Not looking forward to the annual spidermite battle though. I've got my timer to follow the natural daylight hours here. They're in a 4X5 area with the 4X2, 8 bulb T5's.
