Comments about T-5 3-Tier SunLite Garden with Jump-Start Kit:
I have monkeyed around with all sorts of plant starting systems and home-made light systems for over 30 years. This was WAY more efficient and FAST. I need to change my plant starting schedule, because the tomatos grew TOO fast and got too big before I could put them out! I EXPECT this to last me for many years! I may even keep it up for winter use for lettuce! I love it!

Comments about T-5 3-Tier SunLite Garden with Jump-Start Kit:
It only took two cups of coffee to get this project done. One cup to read over the directions carefully and the second cup was sipped as I built the stand. It's not as difficult to assemble as others have discribed in their reviews. All the parts were in the package, they were labeled well and everything worked.
Seattle has been cooler than normal this year and my vegetable garden is struggling. On a good note my rain barrels are filled to the brim. I decided that I wanted to get a jump on the gardening next year and bought my Christmas present early. I am looking forward to a better harvest next year with the help from my new T-5 3 tier growing system.

Comments about T-5 3-Tier SunLite Garden with Jump-Start Kit:
After doing a lot of looking around I selected this product because of its features. The lights are really easy to adjust - new seeds need to be within 3" of the lights but as they grow the light must move. The lightbulbs that come with this system had seeds emerging within days - probably about 1/2 the normal time. The shelves are large and hold lots of seed trays and plants.

Comments about T-5 3-Tier SunLite Garden with Jump-Start Kit:
I've always wanted a lite stand, but could never afford the amount of money it took to by one. When I saw that I could buy a stand on easypay, I jumped on the oppurtunity. When the unit arived, I was able to assemble it by myself in less than an hour.
Last year I made my on fixture out of wood and shoplight fixtures, but it wasn't satisfactory. My plants where spindly as adjustnent of the light source was diffucult. With the T-5 3-tier light garden I'm abel to adjust the lights perfectly, and my plants are strong and healthy as if they where growing in a greenhouse. I love it.

I would recommend this to serious gardeners.I like that the product is on casters. It will make it easy to move plants out doors to harden. The chains and timer on the lights help control the amount of light on seeds and plants. [...]

Comments about T-5 3-Tier SunLite Garden with Jump-Start Kit:
I've been coveting lighted grow shelving for a long time, and made do with homemade for years. This year, I finally treated myself, and boy, am I glad! This product is fun and easy to assemble (took me about an hour by myself), and it works exactly as you expect. My tomatoes, peppers, lettuce, and flowers are doing wonderfully, and in about three years, this product will have more than paid for itself -- growing from seed is MUCH less expensive and a lot more satisfying, and this product makes it easy. I have several jealous friends now, too...
