Cheers mate, i take it you mean florecent, could i use a halogen one ? or is that a no no !

Halogen is a no-no.

the consensus on this site is no no to halogen.... they give off green light, which plants cannot use...

Ok Thanks for that, what wattage am i looking at ??

 

[Cr8z13]

For cuttings, less than 50 watts is fine, but you want to give them closer to 100 watts per plant for the flowering stage.
