you can start seedlings under that light but your gonna need to upgrade to 23w CFLs at least. you can use your 15w and a few cfls untill you get everything squared away

actually i dont know about uva bulbs, you might just need to go CFL. some wiser member should come by with info on lumens and light penitration bla bla bla

If it's a uva and uvb bulb I would suggest thinking about just going with CFL's. Uva/uvb bulbs can cause harm to humans (even blindness) with over-exposure so i would limit your time in the light if you are going to use it. I have also heard, however, of people mimicking the sun by slowly decreasing the time the uvb bulb is on the plant after like 2 weeks in order to increase flowering. I've never used them but they are suppose to increase the amount or trichosomes and THC in MJ. So there are some possitives and negatives for that bulb lol but you could experiment and who knows maybe you'll get some killer buds from that setup :bigjoint: looking forward to see what you get :weed:

ya solo cups are great to grow in, make sure you cut good drain holes.

2 plants 2-3 23w cfls will last you through the seedling stage and int the beginning of veg
