if you decide to paint the floor, use white paint.

Good luck.  This is an interesting project.  It will be great if you can run things with no lights.  Keep us posted.  Elizabeth

I prefer the granite.  It holds the plants up better in wind.  I am going to try mylar on the ceiling and lay some down outside my doors and windows.  This may suprise people but i think that i wont need to run lites.  The store is already twice as brite as it was.  When i layed a small piece of mylar on the ground by my door it lite up the store.  I have heard that they follow the sun with solar panels so why not mylar?

I am a person that tries just about everything.  You don't know until you try things under my set of circumstances.

Hey Tom,

How's the mylar solution working out for you?  Your plants look good.  Are you going to cover the ceiling too?  Looks like you're also using expanded shale.  Hows does it compare to the hydraton?
