What brand of grow light do you use?
    #18738784 - 08/21/13 05:29 PM (10 years, 6 months ago)

So my first grow I attempted didn't go so well... One reason was because i bought a crappy soft white 6700k daylight. I got huge stems and small caps so i switched to sunlight.
My 2nd grow went fantastically got more than 20 grams dry from 4 cakes, used sunlight again.

Although now i cant put my fruiting chamber in front of the window like i used because the landlord is doing roof work during the day.
So my question is, what specific brand of grow light do you all use? Is it also sold at lowes or home depot?

I preferably would like something that fits in a lamp if possible.
Thanks!

Any brand will do. You want "daylight" rather than "soft white". You can get it in fluorescent tubes and compact fluorescent (cfl) bulbs. You can probably get it in incandescent bulbs but they get really hot so avoid them.

You want a CFL in 6500K (daylight) spectrum. I use these Sylvania bulbs from Lowe's, and am very happy.

Good luck, man! :thumbup:
