Re: Grow Lights


Tom,
   Keep the soil temps up there until germination. Dr. Chris Mpelkas ( 
photobiologist for GTE Sylvania now retired) said that a combination of one 
standard grow lux bulb with one growlux wide spectrum bulb is the 
best.....use a 4 foot double fixture (shop light). If you don't want to spend 
the money, use one cool white bulb and one warm white or wide spectrum bulb. 
They are probably, almost as good as the grow lights.......probably not quite 
as much red and blue but ok. At home depot, the gro lights are not that much 
money anymore...a few bucks more is all.
