i grow my photo in a south facing window. on a cloudy day i dont usualy see any growth in my cultures, but holy cow does my culture get really dark on a nice sunny day.

also, use NEW salt water. not used. i did a little experiment useing new vs used saltwater and the used stuff just grew algae on the sides of the bottle as well as the green water. the new SW grew only the phyto and its 5x darker than the used SW cultures.
