Hi folks. I was wondering if anyone had recommendations for indoor light sources. I live in Colorado and we’re going to start getting snow here before much longer so I’ll have to haul my plants in. I was thinking about using a flexible LED strip for lighting over the winter. I just moved into this apartment a couple months ago and exactly one room gets sunlight on one wall from a west facing window so some supplemental light might be needed for my growing succulent collection.

Nothing useful to add here other than I'm in the same situation as you and I'm interested in hearing what people suggest! Also, I've heard that you can use just regular LED bulbs so I'm curious if anybody has experience with this and/or can recommend some cheap lightbulbs/clip-on bases.
