i went for 5 businesses for a grow light and no one had. i have some kind of grow light that my family was using for plants. accept it has no specs on it and the box probably got thrown away. how critical is it for the kelvin to be 5000-7000? do all lights have it? should i just use the one that i have or just use indirect sunlight?

You don't need a "grow light" you need a light bulb with the lighting specifications needed.
Sounds like your really new, but all you need is a light fixture ( i bought mine at walmart and also one at a hardware store) they are so simple to find. 
On the back on the box will be kelvin scale and it will show you where the bulb is at on the kelvin scale.
You want it to be 6,500, but any light will really do man. 
The light bulb will be fluorescent and can be picked up at almost any hardware store plus walmart.
It's extremely easy to find man, look up on the forums and start taking notes.
The search box is GREAT.
:goodluck:

Yeah they aren't found in the 'grow light' area.  6500K CFL's are usually found right next to the regular bulbs and they have a regular base like a light socket for a house.

The usually say 'Daylight' spectrum I think.

yeah... i just said i was new at this. i know where to look and walmart home depot and a few other stores dont have it. they said most of them are bought during the spring not the fall. i live in a town not a city. there is a difference. i just found a place that has a light that has close to 4000 kelvin. that's about the best i can do. i guess that will be better then nothing
