Is there something unique about grow lights wavelength/lumens/temp/etc ? I have a workbench LED light I can put to work.

Short answer is yes. What bulb/s is in your work light?

I have no idea, it’s your average hanging, integrated-LED (not a separate bulb) 40 in. long, work light. I think it’s this one... https://www.homedepot.com/p/Metalux...4000K-CCT-Cool-White-4SHP4540R/305016240Charlie

It's not ideal but will work for seedlings. The cool white over time will stunt the growth of your plants. You want a kelvin rating of 5000 to 6500. You want at least 3000 lumens per square foot of space. If you subscribe to buy once cry once philosophy https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00HEYCRI...6&ascsubtag=amzn1.ideas.SBP1TAHSS6Y3

Germination rates so far. I had a couple 0’s so I transferred them to new coffee filters. Fingers are crossed. Otherwise, pretty good #’s on how many seeds are sprouting.

It's time light timer and heat pad thermostat 24 beef steaks, 6 california wonder bells, 6 black beauty egg plants, 6 celebritys Need to figure out if I'm going to germ some japs or buy some mucho nacho plants. I'll sow the squash, sunflowers, green beans and pickles when I transplant. I looked at my lights, I've had them since 91, feeling shame from cman's & skinners setups I'm going to buy that T5 Ho Grow Light. skinner I have an extra heat pad if you want to borrow it, I'll need it back for next year though. 3,660,000 views at the time of this post

oh yeah forgot about the pot maker I talked about earlier I still get a 500 page white pages phone book every other year, so I've been saving them for the ZA The pots suck when they get wet but when transplanting to larger containers they come in handy.

Very nice Payne. Thanks for the offer, but I don't think I need the heat pad. They're in my bedroom and I keep the heater on when it gets chilly.
and there ain't nothing wrong with them lights LOL.

Derek how's Maddy & Tank? Great! They got shredded carrots yesterday along with their salad and they were very happy. Did a tank change and they got to soak in a water tub while we cleaned everything. They love their water soak times.
