I did good. The large vase is store bought, and so are the lights (but I think I can reverse engineer these and make my own now…) but the helix and the germination greenhouse are both printed from designs I tweaked.
The top of the helix is English ivy. It has no grow lights above it on purpose. Is it grows down to find the light, it will spiral around the helix.
The helix itself is modular. I can keeps adding more tiers as it grows, and the lights come in sets of three. I should be able to get it up to 8-9 total tiers. Total cost for the build so far: Roughly $12 including the lights.
