Scored some Fluors, need opinions.

Ok, so thanks to the local growers i found someone's fluorescent fixture and tubes!

Gotta love garbage day near colleges.

So I checked out the ballast and tubes, tried it all out. Great condition.

it's tubes are :

2
Philips Daylight F20T12/D
20 watt/6500K/1075 Lumen

My plants are all under 2 1/2 weeks.
Would this be good for veg growth?

I was gonna replace my CFL's that my buddy broke the other day when i got paid, but this is free so i'm not complaining any.

The spectrum seems right, and i figure since my lil grow box is only about 2x2x2 (will increase soon) it should be ok right?

Thanks for the help everyone.

Rock On!

How hot might that fixture with 2 bulbs get BTW. I don't feel like burning/metling anything. Thanks.
