My wife moans at me enough as it is without me making her more angry by turning it into a nursery.
LOL Glad to see I am not the only one! :-D

Since it's almost spring/summer, I would forget about growlights for a while.
As we speak - the seedlings I have in the window are exploding into growth. Even though it's mostly overcast here, the plants know very well where the sun is placed. It's litterarly a matter of night and day if you place the plants in a window facing south or not. And it's better with south-east than south-west, plants want to get up early and start the day!

Bright sunlight seems to solve most banana-problems. Just remember to water & fertilize and you're fine.

So in my experience, a little bright sunlight solves the problems of the world. I also tell that to my wife when I get her angry because of my passion for my plants! lol
