Incadescent lighting vs fluoro

#847497 - 08/27/02 04:59 PM (22 years, 8 months ago)

Hey doods. Theres this duck that has 4 growing chambers (big tupperware bins), and doesnt want to spend tons of cash on fluoro light setup in each one. This duck was thinking maybe a single incadescent light could work? Maybe about the size of a christmas lightbulb (size of thumb kinda deal?).... thought maybe this would give enough light, and wouldnt give too much heat?

thoughts for the duck?

Simpler, cheaper, and easier is better. Are the bins clear or opaque? One bulb incandescent or flourescent should be plenty. Flourescent provide a better frequency of light, use less power, and produce less heat.

Say, can I have some of your purple berries?
Yes, I've been eating them, for six or seven weeks now, haven't got sick once.
