Outdoor growlights
This might be a silly topic but it's something I have been thinking about since I have recently just received my greenhouse and about to erect it and position it in my garden. But since I live in an area with a small back garden I'm worried that no matter where I place the greenhouse there will be times in the day the sunlight just does not hit the plants. I was wondering is there any outdoor growlights that can supplement the light when there is no sunlight. Iv had a look online and can't really find anything specific for what I am looking. When I type in outdoor waterproof growlights I can only see indoor leds
Or Is this just something growers don't do?

Re: Outdoor growlights
Mine is gonna be stuck between a shed and a fence lol the plan was to grow my own organic fruit and veg so has to be top quality produce. I would gladly put a light or 2 in there and just have them on a timer to suit the natural sunlight. It's just finding the right light and also the best ones there is for outdoor greenhouses

Re: Outdoor growlights
Any light rated at IP67 or more would be fine in a greenhouse.
I've got some cob lights that are IP67 and apparently you can drop them in a bucket of water and they'd be ok.
Can't say I've tried it though

Re: Outdoor growlights
Wouldn’t it be abit sketchy with a lit up greenhouse in Ireland which if possible seems more policed than in England?
