We bought a nice LED grow light (Phlizon 'Newest 600W', though only uses ~110W) to supplement our cacao trees. It's really bright and I'm optimistic that it will help our plants grow well even with shorter winter days.
One problem, though, is that the pink glow is quite visible, even from the street. I have preemptively told the police department to call me if they have questions, as grow lights like this are not usually used for cacao plants.
On another note, it seems our heating system is keeping up in the inner greenhouse area, which is good! This is our first winter with a greenhouse, so there's been a lot of work/anxiety on my part trying to get it ready and tuned properly. I understand now why people use kits and predesigned greenhouse systems.
