Will it work as a plant grow light?

No, I don't think it would work for that. You could try, but I think it would be too hard on the light to have it on for too many hours at a time.

No its only made for growing purposes but It is a bright as a black light but isnt one

No plants need a different spectrum of light. You need an actual grow lamp which u can get at your local pet store. Or online at Marineland.

For the most part you could. It would definitely get your plants to the flowering stage I.e. fruit. Depending on the density of the vegetation however, you might need a stronger light. Also you would need to swap bulbs.

Yes. It will grow but very skow . you Have keep apply some miracle grow and change the soil/pot .

Should work very well. My led plant lights are growing my plants very well to say the least.

Absolutely, I started all of my garden seeds using this system. If you wanted to keep the plants under this light I would suggest that you get a full spectrum lamp. This will aide in preventing the plants from getting too leggy.

I don't think it has enough power on its own, you would probably need quite a few of them to be effective. Also, I'm not sure if it puts out light in the correct spectrum for growing plants.

Yes this is a good light for growing plants as long as you use Fluorescent Grow Light or similar in them.

I don't think I'll do what you want it to. I use mine to start seedlings (peppers, lettuce, zucchini) and keep the light about a foot or two above lants. From that distance it only throws enough light to fill the area for about a 2' in diameter. You MIGHT be able to grow one or two pepper plants but not tomatoes (my opinion). You'll be better suited with something like 4' t-5 lighting fixture. I use the t-5 fixture to help a miniature orange tree (about the same size as a full grown tomato plant) during the short days of our northern winters

I don't think it would give enough light for your purposes . Think of it as a good closet light or as a work lamp.

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.

Doubtful that it will work see wikipedia http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grow_light. These lights do not have a multiple wide wavelengths. Typically these can be bought as a warm white more like a incandescent light bulb or cool white like an office environment. See color chart http://www.theledlight.com/color_chart.html These Led lights are around 3000K they do not have the lower wavelengths that the sun provides.

I wish I could help you. I ordered mine for usage in a plant light. Hope you can find your answer.

Yes! My plant is not near a window and it only receives light from a lamp. No issues at all and looks very healthy.

My greenhouse is in constant sun which makes it get extremely hot. I would venture to guess, yes, it would be able to stand a grow light.

Depends on what you're trying to achieve. If growing low light plants you might want to have two of these lights. I don't think one light will be adequate, in my opinion of course.
