light during fruiting. what to use?

#4257120 - 06/04/05 07:15 PM (18 years, 10 months ago)

i'm not sure what i should go with for my light source for fruiting. Is there such thing as too much light for fruiting? My options right now are a 60 wat light bulb or else the flouresent lightbulb in my closet, what do you think i should use? i also have some 25 watt bulbs but they are too small for me to screw them in to the light socket. Would i have any problems giving them to much light?

the problem with too much light is just over heating, but thats still a problem, try for a night light or some christmas lights or something

A simple 12" white flourescent light bar is great. White flourescents even emit a good blue spectrum of light that some think is better for fruiting.

would christmas lights really work? that'd be great if they did cause i got hella. Any idea how much one of those 12" flourescent lights would cost or where to get one? I have a 3 foot or so flourescent light for my closet light and my fruiting chamber is on the floor of my closet. I'm guessing that the closet light would probably give off enough light. What do you think?
