And so what is actually making it brighter light? And what I realized was when I would point the sensor of my light meter towards the open blue sky, that's what got it to jump up very, very quickly.

5:14Tanner MitchellGUEST
If it's a bright light plant, you need to be able to get down to your plant's perspective right where the leaves are.

Like, did you grow anything? Like, what, what really, like, pulled you into this whole world?
T
4:29Tanner MitchellGUEST
They kind of- both these stories kind of go hand-in-hand really because when I moved to Texas from Oregon, the part of Texas that I live in right now is just north of Dallas, and it's very flat and comparatively, you know, pretty dry and not so green.

I was finding myself going to the mountains all the time, like every weekend, trying to go somewhere that had greenery around me, you know? So we were going to, my wife and I, we were going to Arkansas, about a five-hour drive, you know, a couple times a month trying to get a fix.
T

T
5:11Tanner MitchellGUEST
And when I realized how much I missed having the greenery around me is when I started to bring in some houseplants, trying to get that, you know, sort of recreate that feeling.
