Good for you! Congrats, glad it worked out!

It’s a Bright Effects light that claims to reproduce sunlight levels inside the room. It’s rated at 100-watts but burns at 23-watts of energy. This was the only light my VFT was getting for about two months and the plant loved it. Now the sun is out so I have the VFT outside during the day.

I'm actually planning on doing this if I don't see the growth and color I want out of my plants in my south facing window this season. Good to know that it works well!
