Would this be a good light for a tiny drosera scorpioides?

Hi - I'm sorry I don't know what plant species that is. I tried to use this light for my indoor herbs - but it was not strong enough to maintain my basil plant - but I know that basil requires a lot of light. Hope this helps.

Read some information on light needs of carnivorous plants - UConn Conversatory writes: Most species also require high light levels, and the bulk of the UConn collection is kept in the very sunniest part of the greenhouse complex. I use the light for my orchids - have gotten them to rebloom over and over again. I think this light would work - get the brightest one they have.

This bulb will provide the full light spectrum so it would be preferable to just a plain light bulb for any plant.

I really depends on the plants. Amazon swords probably not but for Java Ferns or Anubias varieties probably. Not all plant have the same lighting needs.

I would imagine that you'd be ok with this light. I have one 48" fixture on my 75 and my stem plants grow 1/2" a day. Not quite as deep as yours but this light is pretty bright.

My opinion is that it would be fine for such. If you needed brighter I would consider the Ray2 light but it might be too much for low light plants.

I use this light to illuminate a 4'x4' tray. The plants on the very edges all lean inwards towards the center. I went to a different reflector, 24"x24" and this eliminated the plant lean. I think the reflector would be good for a 3'x3' grow at max. The ballast and bulbs are good though.

Depends on the type of plant. It's not super bright so while it'd probably be sufficient for low to medium light plants, the light is definitely not strong enough for high light plants unless you have a shallow tank, and position the plants right below the light.

No this blub does not have enough light to do you any good. To set up starter plants you need at least 7-8 watts of power to give the seedling the energy they need. 15 watts would be better. Also I found this small blub heats up far too much for a LED. More than a 15 watt one I have. Remember you are trying to replace the sun's energy so the higher the watts the better the growth.

Radiates about three foot radius, distance will depend on the light requirements of the plant. LED puts out minimal heat, so it should not scortch the plant. Have one light on 12 hr timer to supplement the Alaskan winter "daylight",So far so good, because my orchids are spiking blooms and orange tree has not dropped it's fruit or leaves. Good luck

It is a small and effective light- the bulb is not that large- about 2 inches in diameter. I had it a ground level shining up on a pumpkin about 3.5 feet away and it illuminated well at night (not bright like in a spot-light but well lit.)

I was hoping it would, but my plant did not thrive... although it is most likely because I didn't water it regularly. But I actually moved the plant to the top of my cabinet where it is closer to the overhead lights - and it's doing great. The lamp is great for adding light in my cubical and since that was the reason I bought it, I'm happy with it.

You might if it was fairly close to the book. I would suggest getting the bigger one... much better light!

The light is awesome for lps and sps corals. It should be good for an anemone too but it depends on what the anemone likes.

There light from this bulb was specifically designed for reptiles. It is smaller than conventional flood lights. Use of a regular flood light could harm your reptile.

Depends on how tall the trees are.... I would look for a more powerful light

depends on your plants. It may be adequate for low light plants but definitely not good enough for medium to high light plants.

No, I would say it's definitely not bright enough for corals/live inverts or anything that requires high intensity lighting.

It should work perfectly fine for a refugium. I use it as the sole light on a 10 gallon planted and it's pretty awesome.
