wussup i saw these 'fake' flourscent bulbs will they work?



description: Mini-Spiral Fluorescent Bulb (#903231) — This 800-lumen bulb emits the same amount of light as a standard 60-watt incandescent bulb, yet uses only 13 watts. It's also the same size of standard light bulbs, easily fitting in small lamps, recessed lighting fixtures and more.

---------

they're like bulbs that are flourescent but u can scrwe into
your normal incandescent bulb lamps

those are called compact flouros. they generate high lumens with low watts.

I never really used a lamp. The guy I learned from put it like this...weed is just as the name suggests, a weed, and it will grow almost anyway. I havnt found that to be true, but when I took his advice about growing it worked! I wet a paper towel and folded the seed in it, then I wrapped it in tinfoil and set it in the window seal. they had been there for a week and I opened one and it had about a 1 inch sprout sticking out of it. I put in in my flower pot last night. lamps never really helped me.

I dont know just a suggestion :)

some compact flourecents are great, dont depend ur life on watts, they dont mean everything, there are 20 watt cf lights that replace 100 watts, for one plant a 26 watt spiral compact flourecent is fine for the first couple weeks as long as u keep them really close
