Using "only" a blacklight will not work because there will not be enough spectrums of light that the plant needs to grow, you need a real grow light first, but then along with the real grow light you could also use the black light to add another spectrum for your plant.

It will not work! the best lights you can grow with are HPS or a mix of different lights.

Although it can be used to add aditional spectrums along with a regular grow light :roll:
