yo...thats simply a "white light"...if you're gonna grow...you gotta at least...at the very least get the fluorescent "grow lights"(blue looking light)...you need different spectrums later for sure...but you'll get away with that i just mentioned for a few weeks (extremely close too)-like 2 inches and get like three...one on top-2 inches away...and one just below the top on each side almost touching or touching...most have a little clear plastic guard...they dont get hot...and every chance you get-put it in the sun too...later you'll do great with CFL's...the higher the wattage the better...I got 3 68watt CFL's...two on top and one half way down...a blue fluro...and an extra 27watt CFL...you gotta get mad light on it...because truely the best are HPS and MH...just keep reading "how to grow" forums and you'll be alright...just remember plants are forgiving...stay on top of it and dont over analyize...think sun and artifical lights for 24 hrs at the most-16 hrs at the least...water it by keeping the dirt moist deep down but not water logged...you will kill it with root rot...poke holes to let CO2 down by the roots...mist it every three days or so...just think like a plant. remember just dont over think it...like i did...at least i got lucky at first...and researched like a mu f$cker as I went...hit me up for any more questions...below is my plant-by doing the same im tellin you to do
