minus-squareczardestructo@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·edit-28 months agoThat’s my first question. I estimate that light would cost me about $30-40 a month to run with current electricity prices but I’ve wanted to do this with sugar snap peas for so long. I want flowers and things to eat in the winter!
minus-squareShadow@lemmy.caOPlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·8 months agoI posted the math if you’re curious. For it to cost $30/month you’d have to pay $0.47/kwh. That’s some pretty pricy electricity. I’m lucky to live in BC and we’ve got some of the cheapest power (lots of hydro) in North America.
