Will these lights work for growing?

They are the standard fluorescent low-energy bulbs handed out by the government (pah!) about a year ago allover the UK. Ive been told by a few mates they will work, but others say no. So i thought i'd ask some more in-the-know people

Here are some pictures:

how many do you got?

i got 2 of them but i should be able to 'acquire' a few more if needed

**Sorry about the hench picture size...**

You need much more Lumens, that only has 800.
A 65 watt will give you 4500 lumens. Add three of those and u can get a decent Bud.

they will work for the first 2 weeks..... get your self a 400 watt Hps..55,000 Lumens

sick. i think ill get another 5 to 8 of them and some seeds xD

its a stealth closet grow, probably in a PC case. i dont have the money nor the way of getting a light like that.

im too young to have a credit card so i would have to buy them with my dads... and im sure he would love to know why im buying them...

Today i managed to get my hands on a box of lights like this:















In total, i have 15 of the bigger ones, 15 of the smaller and the two from my first post.

But i have no plugs for them. Where can i buy them?

go to the nearest hardware store and go by the extension cords and lights they sell these little things that your bulb screws right into and then you just plug it into a cord thats what im doin, you will have to buy some extension cords so you can plug em into tho
