And here is that setup in my last post after a re-work. I've enclosed it in mylar and added a fogger for some high humidity levels.

Hey mate! You are a true hard core ficus guy!!
I used to live in Atlanta, GA. Don't know what part of VA you are in, but if you ever travel down that way you need to check this place out:

It is a Benedictine monastery that raises bonsai, and as I recall they grew predominantly ficus species. Very cool, tranquil visit and you might just find some sweet ficus as well!

I'm in the northern part of VA. I have heard great things about that place, so if I'm down there for any reason that will definitely be on my itinerary. Thanks!

Well, with Fall at our doorstep, I set out to rebuild my indoor setup for the coming winter. It's a big wooden frame, wrapped in plastic, with my lights on top. Humidity is high, and so is the temperature. Should work pretty well.
