Weird Light Query

| .. I have a full spectrum light to use during the winter days when people get depressed due to lack of light- they're practically de rigeur in the PNW.. anyway, I don't really use it and was wondering if I could use it on my seedlings instead. They're pretty serious lights and you're only supposed to use them for fifteen-twenty minutes a day or you might become manic, so I am wondering if they are appropriate for the purpose. If they are, it would save me money and the light structure perfectly set up to swivel downward and be trained on my seedlings. I just don't want it to be too intense, or to be a bad idea for them some other way.
Has anyone tried this before? Thanks again! |

| I use full spectrum CFLs in my room, three of them. they seem to be better for the plants than regular bulbs and helped get me through the winter, heh. just my two cents. |

| Plant grow lights are very cheering. They take the place of other lighting in two rooms in our house. They are brighter even than the lights they sell for winter doldrums. |
