    Default Have some additional lights... But are they right?

    Hey guys. I am just over one month into flowering and my buds are looking fairly small still. I have been recently thinking about some additional lights but unfortunatly have no money until at least late next month. I found a spare ceiling spotlight bar which takes GU10 40w light bulbs (look very similar to downlights, google if unsure.) I have four of these bulbs and was going to connect it up and put it in my grow room to give additional light to the mid/lower section of the plant. I just need help as to whether or not these lights will actually work for the plants.


    Just for your information i am currently just using one 2700K 150w CFL for two Barneys farm LSD. Peaaaaceeeeee

    Halogens are about as inefficient as bulbs get. If you can run them without having heat issues it probably wouldn't hurt, they probably would give some amount of benefit, but even weak cfl bulbs lying around the house would probably be better off overall if you want to add anything.
