Can u wire flrs to a plug and will...

[joe86el]

just wondering is it possible to wire a flourescent light up to a plug and which of these will work best (its all i can get my hands on)
white, warm white, extra warm white or a U.V 20w darklight?
I can also get L.E.D bulbs (blue spec) 0.8W.

use the parrallel figure 2 diagram to wire up lights, for cfl style

use 5000-6500 kelvin for veg
use 2700-3000 kelvin for flower

the UV darlight is good for nothing ... you need the 'cool' or 'daylight' type for vegging, and the 'warm ones for flowering, but you aint gonna do anything with just a couple low-wattage CFLs ... remember, we're trying to replace the SUN , here ... look in the 'cabinet growing' threads, you will likely see the minimum lightitng that still works to some extent ... remember: you face the same criminal penalties for a small, pathetic little plant ... if the setup won't yield well, you are risking a LOT for NOTHING ... good luck, we all started somewhere, but realize it does take some expense, and a lot of research ... it gets easier each time ... :jointsmile:
