For what purpose though?

Fluorescents would be so much easier and maintainable.

I'm sure it's possible, but why?!

Why not just put it near a window


A candle provides such little light, costs a ton to keep replacing the candles, crazy fire risk.

Id rather just fruit in the dark. This is kind of a dumb question. Cab you explain why you wanna know Im curious

I am curious as well... is this just a theoretical question, or is there an actual reason for using a candle?

This thread has been closed.

Reason:
You would not get decent fruits by using a candle as your only light source as well as the complications that would ensue would make the very attempt dangerous and foolhardy.
