I agree with Marcolo on visual comfort. My lights were back ordered and they did not even call or email me. I realized that the lights had not arrived and called them and they had some lame excuse like we were not sure about your zip code.. I have the Boston swing arm and it is not as adjustable as I would like. I have the double jointed one but it is kind of tight and hard to adjust. If you are truly looking for a great reading light in bed, I would highly recommend a LED that is Dimmable. It does not get warm and the light throw can be very tight allowing your SO to sleep without the glare of the light. I love the Holtkotter Bernie because the light is just fabulous. My DD's reading nook has it. But for our bedside, I got the Night owl light by lightology. It is 3watts I think. The feedback was that the gooseneck on this is high quality and does not get floppy. Here is a link that might be useful: Night owl.

Thank you so much - this was very informative! Unfortunately, neither says how high above the picture to install the light (and the electrical!). Thought it would be something easy to find, but apparently, I was wrong! :-)

The lowest arm on that fixture is the "bottom". Sixty one ( 61 ) inches from the floor in your case, to the bottom and lowest arm of that light. ( 29 + 32 = 61) There ya go.

It's not a grow light, I don't know who could possibly afford an actual grow light they're like 30 dollars for a 2 ft light. It's just am extra bright led shop light. Here's the link https://stonepointledlighting.com/portfolio-item/10000-5000-lumen-4-ft-linkable-metal-shop-lightsl4yl10000l/ It took me forever to find that link!! Geez. Anyway yeah I think I'll just keep an eye on temp and soil and such. It doesn't generate much heat so I don't think it'll scorch anything. I don't think I started too early unless I miscalculated. Tomatoes and other long season things a re usually 8-10 weeks before last frost date right? I think I planted last week of March so around 9 weeks. But we definitely should've held off on the raspberries! I do grow a lot of tomatoes because I can a whole years worth of tomato products for a family of 3. That's a couple quarts of tomato sauce per week plus you need a TON of tomatoes to make paste. I also plan on sharing with family and friends who don't know how to start seeds. But I still may end up culling weaker seedlings lol I did go a touch overboard.
