   I've been looking into horticultural LEDs and it's been a bit annoying to find commercially available ones that are also power efficient, and also have good heatsinks. Anyone have a good recommendation?
   
   Also, I'm planning on building a wooden frame to hold multiple levels of vegetables and my idea is to make water trickle down from one level to the other as efficiently as possible. My first thought was to copy one of the "drainpipe" designs and simply layer them, but that means low root space for each plant. Anybody know any interesting or space efficient designs I could construct with a jigsaw, workbench, nailgun, screws and drill?

   100 would be a good start. I am starting to test with a wall that is 30 ft wide and 15 ft tall.

    Yeah it's just a wall full of plants, 1 layer per shelf, I'm not sure how many because of root space constraints of each plant but I don't mind going overboard on LEDs and power and water and stuff. But the important thing is that I want to be able to just water the top layer and have the water efficiently trickle down.

    So let me get this straight. You have 1.5 mil in the bank and you come to this place to have an indoor garden designed for your home. Did I miss anything here?
