Step 12Finishing Touches
Run the white duct tape, or whatever you're using, down over the light cords so they don't stand out so much.
Plug the two lights into the extension cord. Run the extension cord into the Lamp Timer and plug it into the nearest outlet. Tack the extension cord down with the staple gun to route it along the baseboard or some other unobtrusive route, and use more duct tape or staples or whatever to tack any excess cord up under the bottom shelf so there isn't electrical cord dangling all over the place.
Put a container under the bottom drainage pipe so when you water your plants the drainage doesn't go all over the floor.
Program the light timer to turn the lights on for some period of time during the day. I'm not a very good gardener, so I'll leave that decision up to you.
Pour some water on both shelves and make sure it drains correctly down the tubes, doesn't leak, doesn't spill off the front, etc.
Put plants on the shelves and enjoy!
