    my lights!!!

    Answer me this:

    What kind of lights? How many watts total?

    It is a total shot in the dark going by lumens.

    the question is what type of light is it? Shop lights can be Halogen and that is not good for growing for example.

    That is more of a warm bulb for flower cycle. You need 6500k for seedling and clone and veg cycle.
