Re: Office Key Lime
Inventive and so much rewarding since it makes you feel better!
I have the same problem like yours.... working 8 hours a day in an office with NO windows...

Interesting tree.
But the first thing that crossed my mind when seeing it was a woman standing on her hands..

Re: Office Key Lime
Is that just a 120 watt spiral-type integrated CFL? Or do they make those in special grow bulbs?

Office Key Lime
When I was in a similar situation, starting 40 years ago, I got permission to bring in a 2 foot standing fluorescent fixture. My last clinical employment was in a hospital, so they put a safety cord & a three-way plug on my lamp. Nowadays, I think management is more attuned to employees' mental health, although not in the present economy. I think they are building offices with more windows, also. It never hurts to ask.Tom Simonyi wrote:I work in a laboratory with no windows...in the winter I grow weary with little sunlight....this set up seems to work well for my Citrus aurantifolia....the light is on a timer (on for 18 hours per day). The green plus the extra light lift my spirits during the day.

Tom

Yes, it does Storm! I love the image! Now, whenever I see this tree, I see the woman...standing on her hands.

Re: Office Key Lime
My solution was to rotate the trees on a weekly basis, with at least six weeks between visits indoors.

Re: Office Key Lime
Thank you, Russell...Regarding your question, possibly...however, I think I will let it develop in its current container for some time.

Re: Office Key Lime
Thank you all for the kind words....I appreciate it. Dale: over the years the fruit I harvested (very good by the way) yielded only enough to garnish a few gin and tonics (also very good)...

Re: Office Key Lime
Very nice Tom,
Funny, I'm from Key West where the key lime,( and of course key lime pie) originates, but have never thought of trying one for bonsai !! But it is now on my "to do" list thanks to you.
Happy New Year,
Ed

Me too Ed.
I always keep and eye out at Home Depot and Lowes, especially in Ft. Walton Beach (better variety than here). This seems to be one that I can actually find NOT grafted, a giant plus!
