IKEA Milsbo Greenhouse Cabinet | Simple Setup & Accessories

Hi! I had some requests to see my IKEA Greenhouse setup/accessories so here it is- short and sweet. I really didn't make too many modifications to my cabinet; no extra drilling and building required, just removing and adding some items here and there! Let me know in the comments below if there's anything I missed or if you have any further questions about my cabinets.

For anyone else wanting to know energy usage on this set-up, I worked it out at about 20kWh/month (£7/month at current UK rates). 4x10W lighting running 12hr/day = 15kWh/month. Really important to get a low power fan. 150mm (6in) or less, with a low speed setting. Running 2 fans at 3W 24h/day is 4kWh/month. If you use 100W fans the whole set-up costs 4-5 times as much to run.

Your set up looks clean and modern. I love that inside looks seamless and no ugly pegboard.

I have Barrina lights too in my Millsbo. I reached out to Barrina to ask if the lights are compatible with humidity (waterproof). Their answer is that they are not waterproof and you mustn't have more than 85% humidity in your cabinet. So your thermometer-hygrometer is a great idea to check it. I live in Ontario and I grow orchids in these cabinets, same problem with low humidity, although you win in the Prairies!

This was so helpful! Thanks for the detailed explanation. It doesn’t seem so daunting to me now to create my own greenhouse cabinet! Saving this to my favourites. 💕🌷

I'm thinking about getting something similar for my highland nepenthes and possibly some orchids. Looks like a great product!

Such a sleek set up! I also have a Ikea cabinet that I didn't drill any holes, instead utilize magnets and grids + accessories. I got my cabinet cuz I was sick of accidentally knocking over my baby Hoyas in their lil Dixie cups haha

Thanks for the lighting tip. The ones I have are burning my anthuriums.

I've got 6 cats and a dog, I would love to have plants all through my house, but many of them are toxic, and even if they aren't my cats like to eat any plant around. I live in florida so most of them are happy outside, but I think I'm gonna get a couple cabinets for my nicer plants so I can have them indoors.

I like the idea of putting the grow lights in front to make the plants face forward, I’m going to try that! I noticed you use Lechuza Pon, are you making a video about how to use it and what you think about it?
