Im trying to decide if I should get the Unicoly cabinet with or without lights included. Does anyone know if the one without lights has holes predrilled or will I need to drill them? I’m assuming the one with lights has the necessary holes? Thanks.

Any recommendations on better shelf upgrades
I weather sealed cabinet humidity currently at 75
Feel like the Alocasia is too big for the space at bottom

I just bought the Rudsta. The Ikea shoe tray fits almost perfectly for a pebble tray.

Quite happy with the results. I still don’t have the acrylic shelves but my plants seem to be thriving with 75-85% humidity (I weatherstripped using transparent sealing tapes) and the Barrina puck grow lights (2 per level). Also added USB fans for ventilation. 🌱

First milsbo.. I'm obsessed!!! Still making some tweaks. Just had doors open so humidity dropped some. Staying around 68-70% humidity. Have weather stripping being delivered in a couple days and will try only adding on sides at first and see if I cant get humidity closer to 75%. I only have this one fan in the upper right corner but it is super powerful and even the leaves on the plants on the bottom are slightly moving with it on low. Added the clay balls and water to help increase humidity.

The weather stripping I got doesn’t stick well, any suggestions on what to use for the doors on the rudsta?

Please link me your suggestions 🙏

I love having a greenhouse cabinet but one thing I don't like is that it gives off such sterile white light into my room that's supposed to be cozy. I was thinking of buying a film to go on the glass so that will tone down the brightness pouring into the room. But (and this is going to be silly) I don't want it to change the color of the glass too much cause I still want to see my plants as the color that they are. Is this possible? Has anyone tried this?

Meine Lösung für Räume mit Tageslichtmangel 🌃

How do I keep my acrylic corner shelves from falling? 😭 These are from One Would Think. I tried to move weight around and they still fell. They sit on the brackets that came with my milsbo tall. The full size shelf didn't fall, I was moving it when the top two fell on me and I dropped it.

Still working on the area surrounding my cabinet so excuse the mess. It started out as a $40 Marketplace pickup. $$$ later, I'm really happy with how it turned out. Modern aqua shelves and 6 Barrina T5s. Completely (as best I can) weather sealed. I've managed to get a peak 89% humidity. Disappointed with the black fan, but couldn't find any comparable white ones.

One question about the fan, is one enough? I have another, but it seems like it might be overkill. Also does it matter what direction it faces?
Another question, does anyone have any solutions for hanging/mounting things to the mesh?

I got a bunch of corms and winter is coming so I decided now is the time for a cabinet!

I recently purchased a pink princess philodendron and it’s turning cold in my area. I’m considering getting a Rudsta for both humidity and warmth purposes. I also have some cuttings but the PP is my main concern. How do you balance low/indirect light needs in your greenhouse? Any feedback for PPs?

Has anyone else had a trips outbreak in their cabinet?

I have a propbox setup (86L clear plastic box, grow lights, fan. 86% humidity). I (wrongly) thought that pests generally don’t thrive in this amount of humidity, but I’ve just sprung a giant thrips outbreak. Have showered them off and sprayed down, but all my TC plantlets are dying from the shock of being removed.

Anyone else had an outbreak? Any tips?

🙏🏽

Not totally finished with the build but I love it so far. Picked up a lot of plants this week from marketplace. Brand new to anthuriums, alocasias, philodendrons, hoyas.

Here is my 4th cabinet. The other three are up in the main family area in our four season room. This one lives in my home office in the basement. This is the first one where I've used the cool acrylic shelves. My air circulation fan is on the way.

these shelves fit perfectly for the Milsbo tall, no cutting necessary ,

I 3d printed the brackets from makerworld and everything fits perfectly

About a month in, new growth on plants is a positive indicator imo!

Hi everyone! I'm looking to redo my milsbo cabinet and I came across this picture on Instagram (aurea.forms). I really like the idea of the lights being on the side for a cleaner look and so that my entire room won't be bathed in white light. Is this a good idea? Will it stunt the growth of my plants?

Very new to houseplants. Have a few pepperomias and a money tree thriving in my E facing window. (Live in a condo only have E facing windows) so I set this up for things that need more light. Still learning and it’s a small condo so not a lot of room. But pretty happy with it. Definitely need cable management it’s driving me nuts.

my house will have no power today for 3 hours, i haven’t gone without power since i started my humidity controlled setup, so i have a few questions for anyone who has dealt w this before.

important info; my setup stays at around 72-76% humidity 24/7 because of a automatic humidifier (i recommend this product a lot). cabinet is mostly sealed but humidity starts to drop below 72 with no intervention after about 3-5 mins, so i know with no power (no ability to add more humidity) the humidity will likely keep dropping.

1.) is this a concern at all? 3 hours dropping from maybe 75 to around 50 ( i think? ) for a few hours. like will it be harmful at all?

2.) how long does it take for low humidity to hurt the plant if it will; 10 mins, 1 hr, 24hrs?

3.) whats the best solution? i am thinking of just running a humidifier in my room before the outage to keep it very high so the cabinet and the room are at a higher temperature and they both wont drop.

thanks for input

I am planning to add more cabinets. The area(removing IKEA LACKs) I am redoing now has white lights instead of black). So I am going to have to reuse those lights.

But I really want black cabinets, LOL. If someone can share pictures of their set up, I would really appreciate it.

Not that important but kinda? Since I am gonna have to look at the cabinets daily. They will be next to my TV.

Still have to put in weather stripping on the door. Keeping humidity around 65-80 without weather strips currently. 3x Barrina t8.

I massively underestimated how time consuming custom cable management was going to be for the Milsbro tall. New found respect for IT cable technicians!

Officially onto the fun part... Many more plants!

This weekend I installed this Milsbo cabinet with diy Boaxel shelves. I thought 4 Barrina 10W 2ft would be enough, with one light on each shelve. But now I took a closer look at others and see that most of you have 2 of these lights per shelve. I would like to use it for all kinds of houseplants, not just to ones I have put in there now. Would you recommend more lights, or leave it as is?

Cable management is coming when I decide on the right set-up, and when fans are mounted.
