For more casual plants, this is great. My tineke rubber tree and monstera deliciosa each have their own bulb and have been absolutely thriving. I also recommend getting a timer to plug it into.
They fit perfectly into our kitchen recessed lights and provide great illumination. Make sure to put up a curtain (preferably reflective) or install them in a fixture with a reflector/shield.
It is in the winter season and my pothos is still sprouting new leaves. I have a bunch of new growth on my miniature roses. I also have a modest sized colocasia that had grown numerous green leaves.
These bulbs are terrific. They are 9 watts which doesn't cost much electricity. The par value is higher for these th than the feit br30 bulbs.
This bulb needs to be around 6-9 inches over the plant in order to work. It messes up the décor of my living room and is in general an eyesore.
The light fixture is a bit taller and much more higher quality than i expected from reading the reviews. I leave on overnight or if it's grey out. I am very happy with this grow light an love how it fits perfectly on my dresser.
The stand itself is pretty nice, but i'm not using it until i find a decent bulb. Will probably send them back.
