Is the lamp suitable for growing indoor plants?

I used this to help my plants that I brought indoors through the winter months and it worked just fine for them. This is in Southeast South Dakota. As a side note, my husband loved the lamp as well and now we have three of them sprinkled throughout the house.

In an enclosed space yes, depends on what you're growing also. Different plants would like different lighting I found this a great lighting system for vegtative growth it was less then par for flower development by all means you cannot go wrong on the price and quality hydrofarm is on par with many 200w systems of other names

I believe it is total effective output --- not per bulb. Here is the description of the bulb itself: The GE F24HO/24W/865 6500K Blue T5 grow light is perfect for the vegetative period of indoor plant growth. Producing 2,000 lumens with only 24 watts, this high output (HO) fluorescent lamp is also a great energy-saving alterative to metal halide lamps. Pair these lamps with one of our 2-foot fluorescent grow fixtures for an ideal, high-efficiency grow setup.

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 don't know about using this for a grow light.

The plant will probably adapt to being grown indoors, but unless you have supplemental lighting, it is not likely to flower indoors. There are other types of true jasmines that are better suited for growing as indoor plants. Jasmine polyanthum, Jasmine officinale, or one of the Sambacs would be a better choice ~ Emerald Goddess Gardens

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

Nothing in my home would keep a potted plant alive. UV rays? Don't know. However, the lamp is excellent for reading!

It would depend on the type of terrarium you want to create. I do not think the light provided is strong enough for plants or reptiles.

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.

It should do fine. However, as you'll only get a little sun during the summer months, it would be a good idea to get some augment light, such as a small LED grow light. I keep mine indoors all the time -- it's not going to get too big -- and I have augmented light. Just don't let the temperatures get below 60 degrees as it is tropical.

It does get warm so I suggest you place your plants at least 12" away from the lamp. This light has produced beautiful results for me. It is well worth the price, and will not only display your plant beautifully, but will produce new growth. I own several of these lamps and my plants are thriving. I hope this helps.

Yes. The lamp shade does not have to be used. An interesting or different light bulb should work well.

what I use is a simple cheap lamp that has a metal shade behind the light and has a clamp that can be attached to something solid. I think I paid about 10 bucks for it at a hardware store. It sure grew lots of plants for me.

No. The light spectrum is design for plant growth. Try Blue Max therapy lamps for SAD.

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.

It depends on amount of light you can give it. The included LED light will not be enough light for growing plants.
