Go for it, just keep the bulb high to start with, like 3 feet then work your way down daily. Don't want to shock them with all the light, best to start slow man. And get some pics up :joint1:

I agree with the rhino and the babe...

i might also add that you keep a very close eye on your temperature and your plants... check them every 30 minutes for the first 12 hours you swicth them under the 600...

lots of air flow is a PLUS!!
