Cheap Light Bar for Seedlings

012

A couple months ago we replaced a couple of bathroom light fixtures and it didn’t take too long for me to find the old ones a new home.  An old extension code couple electrical connectors and I have a completely non-code light bar.  I used the smaller fixture and replaced my light bulbs hanging from sockets using zip ties.

When I have some more time I will plan on making a reflector to redirect more light on the plants but for now the little peppers/tomatoes look very happy.

    Are these green grow lights or just regular floures?

    Just plain old 13 watt CFLs though have one incandescent to provide a little heat on those cold nights in the garage.

    I was planning to use light fixtures like those when we replaced them, but my wife recycled them before I could get to them.
