ok so i got thiz light at wal mart it said for growing plants and i was wondering if it was good for growing?
yes it is, but dont go over board with ur plants because they'll out grow that light fast, trigger them soon.
When they get bigger theyre going to need more wattage to give it enough light and to penetrate the leaves.
Yeah, you can use that light until you hit veg. Then your going to want a LED light for veg 18/6 Hours a day. 18 on, and 6 off
What kind of light is that? No you dont want a LED, use CFLs or a HPS light, and you can have it on 24/0.
That fixture only works for 17watt bulbs.. I got the same one. And I think all the other grow bulbs I have seen besides the one that came with it are 20watt or more.
yeah... no.... that light wont grow anything.... maybe a stretched out seedling, but nothing really productive... you need a minimum of 100watts per plant. get a HPS, or MH.
HELL YEA! That's good for growing. Growing basil that is.... Get a real grow light man, a 2 tube t5 would do you good.
oh ok. thanks, oh and how much are t5's? i live in ny an the hardware stores here dnt have any kind of lights like that.
pretty affordable for 2 tube, about roughly 40-60 bucks give or take..NY has a lot of hydroponic shops.
