Nope it wont work. Theres not enough light in the correct spectrums. You can buy a 42w Cf for $10 or just buy a pack of 26w CFls for dirt cheap on sale. or just keep an eye out for floro fixtures in dumpsters, look for a store that is bening renovated, they usualy put in new lighting asn throw away hundreds of perfectly good lights, fixtures and ballasts.

now that i think of it, its not gonna work at all.... see, it puts out almost no wavelengths usable by the plant, it would take like 20 UV lights to put out the same amount of usable light as one cool white flourocent, so your better off buying 2 cheapass 2 bulb flouro fixtures and 4 bulbs and grow with that...

can you find a picture of what the light looks like? when you put a white object under the light does it glow?
